It was at this time that Julia de Melo Kemper, a lawyer in Lisbon, accepted her father's challenge and decided to take on a centuries-old family heritage - the passion for wine!
This was the start of Julia Kemper’s wines, at Quinta do Cruzeiro, on a plateau surrounded by mountains, with pine ando live trees along the borders.
A true biodiversity ecosystem.
In 2008, the first wines hit the market and immediately gained the recognition from critics, in a combination of originality, character, elegance and structure.
