Reguengo de Melgaço means land of the royalty. The name comes from the fact that the estate belonged to the Portuguese royal family on the XVI century.
As the property once belonged to aristocratic feudal families, the Melgaço population used to pay the tithe based on its production. This is the reason why you can find some very large “lagares” and “canastros” existing in the Quinta.

Bachelet Bertrand Santenay Blanc is made from 100 percent Chardonnay.
The Santenay Blanc comes from a parcel that is 1.2 hectares in size (3 acres) in the village called 'En Charron', at around 300 meters above sea level, with excellent sunshine and thin limestone soil, guaranteeing great aromatic finesse.
The wine shows a beautiful golden color, a fresh and slightly roasted nose combining lemon and lime aromas with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, almond and toasted hazelnut flavors, along with notes of white flowers and vanilla nuances.
