This Dão of mine!

The Dão region is located right in the middle of the Portuguese wine regions. The area enjoys a temperate climate due to the factor that's surrounded by 3 mountains : Serra da Estrela, Serra do Caramulo and Serra da Nave. Being away of the Atlantic Ocean has it's upsides: abundant rains in the winter and long, warm periods in the summer. What also helps is the soil, here, the vineyards are on a sandy well drained soil with granite rock.

All of these key elements turns wine into pure bottled greatness.
