The Institute of Masters of Wine (IMW) is delighted to welcome Amorim Family Estates, comprising the Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo, Taboadella and Herdade Aldeia de Cima wine projects, as an official supporter. The projects are led by Luisa Amorim and span three distinct Portuguese regions; the Douro, the Dão and the Alentejo.
Through this agreement, these three wine projects join the Institute of Masters of Wine’s global network of supporters, contributing to its mission to foster excellence, interaction and learning across all areas of the wine world and reflecting a shared commitment to wine education and knowledge exchange. The relationship provides a platform for future collaborations around Portuguese wine regions, native grape varieties, viticultura heritage and broader educational initiatives connected to Portugal.
Luisa Amorim commented: “We are very proud to support the Institute of Masters of Wine and its remarkable work in advancing wine knowledge and education internationally. Portugal has an extraordinary wine heritage, with more than 250 native grape varieties, unique regions and a deep culture of blending. We believe this partnership is a meaningful way to contribute to the future of wine, while helping share the richness and diversity of Portuguese wine with a global community.”
Sarah Harrison, IMW executive director, added: “We are proud to have Amorim Family Estates as part of our supporter community and excited by the opportunities it provides for our members and students to deepen their knowledge of the diverse regions their portfolio represents. We look forward to working closely together in nurturing the next generation of wine leaders.
