Between Lisbon and the Tagus river's left bank, this wine house has been managed by five generations of Portuguese women.

Casa Cadaval’s history spans over 400 years, originating from the Palace of Muge, which once housed European royalty. In the 19th century, the estate became part of Casa Cadaval through the union of Dona Maria de Faro and D. Nuno Álvares Pereira de Melo, the first Duke of Cadaval. Today, Countess Teresa Schönborn, Dona Maria’s granddaughter, continues as the fifth generation to run the estate. The vineyards benefit from the maritime mineral-rich soils of the former Tagus Delta, imparting unique freshness, minerality, and elegance to Casa wine. Besides vineyards, Teresa's estate also includes one of the oldest Lusitanian stud farms on the Iberian Peninsula.
