A winery in the heart of Lisbon

“Remarkable, fearlessly experimental urban winery in Lisbon”

Julia Harding, Jancis Robinson Tasting Notes

At Adega Belém, we take a deeply collaborative approach to viticulture, winemaking and cellar door services. We closely work with vintners in and around the city of Lisbon, whose vines thrive in the ecologically rich mixed landscapes of the Atlantic coast. At the cellar door, we love to pair our wines with high quality local produce, sour dough bread, artisan cheese, and Iberian pork ham. For private groups, we offer Mediterranean diet style cooked dishes in clay pots, with everyone seated around one long table in the winery.

Our passion is to hand craft high quality wines combining contemporary cellar technology and a minimal intervention approach. All wines are fermented spontaneously without sulfites, mostly as whole berries to maintain yeast diversity and allow a slow progressive release of the sugars. We let the wines grow at their own rhythm, with carefully applied temperature control, stringent hygiene and close "parental" supervision, to allow them to develop into strong and vibrant personalities.
