Casal do Conde, established in the early 20th century in Vila Chã de Ourique, is a renowned winery in Portugal's Tejo region. With 137.5 hectares of prime land, including 75 hectares of vineyards, the estate combines traditional Portuguese grape varieties with international ones, benefiting from the region's calcareous-clay soils and Mediterranean climate. In 2016, the winery was acquired by Casa Agrícola Faia & Filhos, leading to modernisation efforts that respect its rich heritage.
