About this Wine

About this Wine

Legend has it that in Oliveira do Conde there was a place called Barcas, where the ferryman crossed the Mondego River, allowing the connection between the civitas of Viseu and Bobadela, a section referred to by several researchers, which would pass through the current territory of Carregal do Sal municipality. And here are the stones, some of them shaped like barrel staves, to ensure that this is ancient ground where a Ribeiro Santo flows, once a noble estate and later acquired by a priest.

It is in this location, in a terroir influenced by the Dão and Mondego rivers, with hot and dry summers and cold winters, on granite soil with large rocky outcrops, vineyards planted at an altitude ranging from 400 to 600 meters, that Ribeiro Santo tinto is born, a blend of native grape varieties from the region.

Winemaking: Manual harvesting. Complete destemming. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with prolonged maceration and gentle pump-overs for good color and aroma extraction. Natural decantation in stainless steel tanks. 50% of the wine ages in new French oak barrels, and the other 50% ages in second-year barrels for 6 months. Light filtration before bottling.

Winemaker: Carlos Lucas.

Perfectly pairs with roasted meat, dishes with nuts, mushrooms, and mild cheeses.

About this Winery

Magnum Vinhos is born of 3 people who have long been connected to the world of wine. Although with different initial routes, since 1996 Carlos Lucas and Carlos Rodrigues have been making wines together, joining the group in 2005 Lúcia Freitas. The story, which does not go away, takes this team to Dão Sul, one of the biggest wine companies in Portugal, where they were the winemaking team since the beginning of the project led by Carlos Lucas. There they were responsible for making white, red, rosé and sparkling wines from the most prestigious regions of the country (Dão, Douro, Alentejo, Bairrada, Lisbon and Vinho Verde). Among all the wines produced, Quinta das Tecedeiras, Quinta do Encontro, Quinta de Cabriz and Casa de Santar stand out. Besides the Portuguese wines, they were also responsible for the oenology of wines in Brazil, in the well known Rio Sol winery. They were 20 years of conquests, creation and innovation.

In 2011, they decided to embrace a new project. Taking Quinta do Ribeiro Santo, property of Carlos Lucas, located in the Dão region and the Baton wines of Lúcia Freitas, from the Douro, they laid the foundations for Magnum Vinhos. With the construction of a new winery in Dão and an excellent acceptance of the wines in the national and international market, as well as by the press, they conquered in 2014 the highest distinction of agriculture: the prize of farmer of the year, awarded by the Ministry of Agriculture of Portugal This is a project that combines the experience, knowledge and irreverence of these 3 winemakers, with the intention of showing the best of each of the regions where they work, through wines that respect the terroir, the tradition and the
Portuguese castes.

Each bottle produced tells a story. Each wine reflects the passion, work, emotions and dedication placed in it, thus explaining the company's signature Wine & People""."
