ANFORA WINES
Since its beginnings, Quinta de Santa Marinha has been dedicated to producing white and red wines. Back then, you could find grape varieties such as Loureiro, Trajadura and Arinto in the whites, and Borraçal, Espadeiro and Pical Pôlho in the reds. Today, the Quinta has a modern and renewed profile, focusing on producing wines from the international grape varieties Chardonnay and Merlot, recognised for their exceptional quality, and Rosé.
THE ESTATE
Quinta de Santa Marinha has a rich history with deep roots in the region’s winemaking tradition. The name of the estate comes from the Chapel of Santa Marinha, one of the local landmarks. In the beginning, it was a collection of fields and plots that the locals called ‘Quinta do Vale’. At the time, it was crossed by a public passageway, later replaced by the road that currently divides the property into two parts.
Over time, the part where the chapel dedicated to Santa Marinha stands came to be known as Quinta de Santa Marinha, in honour of the saint who it was named after.
