Located in the very heart of Portugal along the banks of the famed Tejo River and just a short drive from Lisbon, the Tejo (pronounced “TAY-JHO”) region is experiencing a wine renaissance from vine to bottle. Formerly known as Ribatejo, the region is now simply called Tejo; the name is a tribute to the river that has shaped its landscape, climate and economy for centuries. Defined by a river and refined by tradition, Tejo wines have a deep-rooted heritage as Portugal’s oldest wine region. Wine estates have made their home along the Tejo River since Roman times. The influence of these ancient grape-growing cultures is evident in the many architectural relics dotting the landscape.

Santos & Seixo is a company owned by two families. Alzira dos Santos and Pedro Seixo had the dream of pursuing their family inheritance and devoting themselves wholeheartedly to wine. In 2010 the dream became reality with their first harvest in Douro and Alentejo, the most emblematic regions in Portugal. Limited productions from the best grape varieties of each region with a careful aging in French oak barrels. The project has grown and today the family owns properties and produces wines in the Douro, Alentejo, Lisboa, Tejo and Vinho Verde region. Combining the modern and traditional processes, our grapes are carefully chosen with minimum intervention. From the production to the ageing in barrels, all the processes are made with the objective to maintain the authenticity of the grapes.
