Adega Mãe Touriga Nacional

AdegaMãe sits on the western strip of the territory and everything about it ties back to the defining conditions of the region. The nearness of the Atlantic Ocean and the nature of the soil itself allow for the creation of decidedly original wines, showing a refreshing natural acidity and a mineral character. The Mono-Castas (one-grape) wines are created to showcase the atlantic terroir through the varieta’ls unique expression.
