The Producer
Dorina Lindemann’s wines are shaped by an unusual balance. The estate was founded by her German father after he was shipwrecked off the Portuguese coast and fell in love with the region. Dorina, who trained at the prestigious Geisenheim, joined in the 1990’s.
The estate brings Northern European rigour to the generous flavours of the Alentejo. Precision, patience, and restraint sit alongside sun and warmth.
Today, Dorina runs Quinta da Plansel with her daughters, forming a quietly confident women-led winery. Their wines reflect that dual heritage: Both disciplined and expressive.

Tasting Note
Take the white peach flavours of Dorina Lindemann’s entry level Portuguese white wine then add nine months of oak ageing in French barriques. The result is a rich combination of ripe fruits and vanilla. The mouthfeel is as extraordinary as the value.
Food Pairing
As a rich Portuguese white wine the Reserve is versatile, pairing happily with seafood, cheese and lighter meat and pasta dishes, particularly those with a light or creamy sauce.
