Located in Obidos, Casa das Gaeiras was founded in the 18th century and has always been considered as a beacon of quality from the region of Lisbon. One of the first producers to bottle its own wines, numerous prestigious awards have been collected over the years. Much of the reputation of Gaeiras stems from the white wine produced here, still referred to as "of the the historic wines of Portugal".
The Obidos DOC is located in a gap between the Peniche Peninsula and the village of Obidos itself. The vineyards benefit from the maritime winds and cooler climate which give the grapes and wines a freshness to balance the hot summers.
The wine is vinified in stainless steel to preserve the vibrant, fresh fruit character.
