QUINTA DE S. SEBASTIÃO

"The region of Arruda dos Vinhos is by nature a land that produces vineyards in quality and quantity."

António Parente

Dating back to the XVIII century, the Quinta de S. Sebastião is rooted on a Portuguese manor house and a secular chapel, about which have been told, since time immemorial, pilgrimage and miracle stories. 

From António Parente's passion for Arruda dos Vinhos, for the vineyard, and for his Quinta, a unique and ambitious project was born. More than producing excellent wines, António Parente wants to share with the world the best that is made in Portugal. 

The combination of mild climatic factors, sunny slopes, geographical location, proximity to the sea, mountain protection and, of course, the people who every day live and take care of the land and vineyards of the Quinta de S. Sebastião, gives life to a wine identity of its own. 

Proof of this are the Quinta de S. Sebastião wines, with body, structure, and elegance. All brands combine the knowledge of the times with the refinement of modern oenology, and the freshness that links the wines to the region is felt in every sip. 

The Forte do Cego wine gets its name from the national monument located in the municipality of Arruda dos Vinhos, close to the farm, and which is part of the Linhas de Torres Historical Route.

Forte do Cego was distinguished with the following medals: Silver Medal at the Vinalies 2020 Contest; Gold Medal at the Berliner Competition; Bronze Medal at the London Wine Competition 2020; Silver Medal at the CWSA 2020 Contest; and Gold Medal at the Asia Wine Trophy Contest. It was also distinguished with the following scores: 85 points and considered "Best Buy" at Wine Enthusiast 2020; 84 points at the Mundus Vini 2021 Contest; and 85 points, Silver Medal at the London Wine Competition 2021. 

Visit the Quinta de S. Sebastião, learn about its history and, traveling in time, you can appreciate the architecture of the XVIII century building, visit the chapel and winery, do a walk through the vineyard, and discover the mine and the riding arena.
