Pedra Cancela, is a Lusovini Vinhos de Portugal wine project started over 20 years ago by the family of Joao Paulo Gouveia.
They are "terroir" wines, using traditional grape varieties, in some cases almost extinct and vines of different ages, resulting in complex wines, full of identity, aiming to take the Dão to cross any borders.
The Quinta Pedra da Cancela is the fruit of the passion for the wine of the Gouveia family. The winemaking operation has been a family activity for several generations, in the beginning they were delivering their grapes at the Adega Cooperativa. In 1999, with the end of the superior studies in Viticulture and Enology of João Paulo Gouveia, son of João Coelho Gouveia, they decide to create their own wine. The vineyards were restructured, others were acquired and a modern wine cellar was built and with a high technology, all respecting the culture of the Dão demarcated region. In 2014 the name of the company became Pedra Cancela Vinhos do Dão Lda
