With Jaen we discover the Iberian Peninsula in Portugal (an identity associated with the Mencia grape variety). The breezy altitudes of the Dão region foster succulent, bluish fruits and white spices. Taboadella’s gentle slopes deliver this modernity. Jaen is one of the estate’s treasures, offering the delight of fruity and intense aromas, combined with allspice, placing this grape variety in another dimension. The wine’s beautiful structure, supported by soft, fine and coated tannins, is perfectly combined with its tense and delicate body.

Vineyards

Situated on a high plateau in Silvã de Cima, Dão, the vineyards at Taboadella benefit from granitic soils and a distinct microclimate influenced by both maritime and continental elements. This environment, combined with non-irrigated, sustainable practices, fosters vines that yield fruit with refined minerality and complexity, capturing the estate’s terroir.
Winemaking

The 2019 Grande Villae Red is crafted from Tinta Roriz, Jaen, Alfrocheiro, and Tinta Pinheira, all hand-harvested and vinified in stainless steel to retain freshness. 100% destemming by vibration and gravity-flow handling allows for gentle processing, preserving the wine’s purity and structure. The wine undergoes partial aging in French oak barrels, crafted from century-old trees, which enriches the profile, adding layers of complexity and a refined structure. This aging approach contributes subtle oak influence that enhances, rather than overpowers, the wine’s character.

Appearance
Deep garnet in colour, reflecting its intensity and age-worthiness.

Nose
Aromas of ripe black fruits, forest floor, and subtle spice evoke the natural surroundings of its terroir.

Palate
Grande Villae Red 2019 offers a structured palate with balanced tannins and concentrated black fruits, underscored by a fine mineral texture. The tannins and vibrant acidity add longevity, promising greater depth as it ages.
Food pairing

An ideal companion to grilled meats, roast beef, and game dishes, the wine’s bold character complements richly flavoured dishes that match its robust profile.

Background story
Located in the Dão region, the Taboadella estate combines deep historical roots with modern winemaking. The Amorim family, known for their contributions to the wine industry since 1870, purchased the estate and revitalized its unique 42-hectare vineyard in Silvã de Cima. Sitting on a high plateau between the Vale do Pereiro and Vale do Sequeiro valleys, this vineyard benefits from granite soils and a climate influenced by both Atlantic and continental patterns. These elements foster a balanced environment, where native Portuguese grape varieties thrive without irrigation, preserving the land’s authentic expression.

Taboadella’s winery, designed by architect Carlos Castanheira, reflects the family’s commitment to sustainability and precision. Using natural materials like cork and wood, the building is integrated into the landscape, with advanced gravity flow systems that minimize handling and protect the fruit’s integrity. Wines are aged in French oak barrels crafted from century-old trees, a process that enhances the wines' elegance and complexity.

Beyond its contemporary revival, Taboadella’s history dates back to Roman times, evident from ancient relics such as a 1st-century wine press carved into monolithic rock, underscoring the area’s longstanding winemaking heritage. This unique blend of ancient tradition and modern expertise allows Taboadella’s wines to authentically capture the essence of the Dão terroir, embodying both the legacy and future of this historic wine region.

92 pts Wine Enthusiast - Encruzado, also known as Salgueirinho, is an endemic variety from Dão. Coming from a land of higher altitude and sheltered like the Taboadella vineyard, in granites metamorphosed for hundreds of thousands of years, in this lot we share our care with the cross-grape variety. The delicate grange of the cross-grape vines requires increased attention during the growing season. The reward is enormous, the wine is firm and exuberant, the texture is silky, the structure is linear and the depth marked. It is a wine of the present and the future.

Touriga Nacional is the international icon of Portuguese grape varieties. It originated in the region where it finds its greatest expression - the Dão. At Taboadella it is grown close to the ground, and sparkles in the sunlight - a great example of its natural acidity in this exceptional terroir. It allows us to detect the violets whose aroma lingers in our memory, in complementarity with the notes of high altitude, black spice and the quartzitic aroma of wet granite, offering surprising complexity.

The exuberance and transparency of the Encruzado grape variety, combined with the delicate floral aromas of Bical and the austerity of Cercial, made it possible “to design” a Villae white wine that has a unique profile and vibrant acidity - a beautiful testimony to the original terroir!

Food-Pairing
Delicious with fish, grilled fresh fish, white meat and as an aperitif

The Amorim family has been in the cork business for decades. The love of cork has inevitably led to a similar love of wine. Twenty years ago they bought, among other things, Quinta Nova in the Douro. In 2018, after gaining the necessary experience, the group decided to invest in another classic wine region, the Dão, by acquiring Taboadella. The winery goes back to Roman times and even has a Roman lagar (simply put: a large container in which grapes are pounded). Located in Silvã de Cima, in the heart of the Dão wine region, the estate consists of a single piece of 40 hectares of vineyard, at an altitude between 400 and 530 meters above sea level. About 11 hectares are dedicated to the white grape varieties: encruzado, bical and cercial. Grape varieties that you don't often find outside the Dão, but that do very well here on the granite soils. The grapes are processed in the state-of-the-art winery that the Anorim Group had designed by architect Carlos Castanheira. The alcoholic fermentation takes place at low temperature in stainless steel tanks (80%) and cement tulip-shaped tanks (20%)

An atypical spring, initially quite cold, combined with the deliberate technical option to delay pruning, led to a delay in the overall harvest cycle, making it possible to avoid exposure to the late frosts that occurred in the first half of April, in the Dão Demarcated Wine Region. Flowering of the vines in the sunny weather propitiated generous formation of the grapes, giving rise to complete bunches. There was no rainfall in June, July and August, with high daytime temperatures and mild nights, which permitted good development of the bunches. These thermal amplitudes in the perfectly planted and adapted vineyards, combined with the high level of water in the subsoil, enabled balanced evolution of the maturation process, and resulted in an exceptional quality of the grapes. The specific conditions of Taboadella's microclimate enabled us to make wines with a profile and richness that reflect this unique terroir. The white grapes benefited from a high concentration of aromas and structure in this year of extraordinarily favourable climatic conditions

By Margot Robbie & Andrew Mukamal

For the press tour following the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig's award-winning, acclaimed Barbie movie, producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie's most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces, then approached designers, from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace, to create looks inspired by the doll-size originals. Many of these looks were not seen as the official Barbie press tour was cut short--so Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Streamline luggage at the airport, and beyond.

Accompanying McDean's sumptuous photography are original Barbie dolls from the period, a treasure trove of rare materials from Mattel's Barbie fashion archives, and the designers' sketches and Polaroids from fittings, layered into evocative collage by art director Fabien Baron. With text by Margot Robbie and Andrew Mukamal, as well as handwritten contributions from the designers behind the looks (from Olivier Rousteing and Michelle Ochs to Manolo Blahnik and Jeremy Scott), this unique book blends the serious chic of high fashion with the serious fun of Barbie world--the dolls, the history, and the style that have captured imaginations for 65 years.
