Fundação Eugénio de Almeida - Adega Cartuxa

About the estate

The Fundação Eugénio de Almeida - Adega Cartuxa estate traces its origins back to 1913, when Vasco Maria Eugénio de Almeida began shaping the agricultural and wine-producing activities in Évora. The history of the property is closely linked to the foundation established by its founder, utilizing productive activities to support its mission and social commitments. Today, the estate manages a vineyard area of more than 600 hectares in the Alentejo region. Every parcel is worked individually throughout the year, taking into account age, grape variety, and soil characteristics to match the intended wine style. Winemaking and maturation take place across specialized facilities, including the Adega Cartuxa at Quinta de Valbom and the technologically advanced Adega Cartuxa Monte de Pinheiros.
