In 1973 João, the undisputed patriarch and current owner of the estate, will have to deal with the events linked to the Carnation Revolution of 1974 and, twenty years later, with the anxieties and the legacy of the next generation.{{Cite web |last=Portugal |first=Rádio e Televisão de |title=A Herdade - Séries Nacionais - RTP |url=https://www.rtp.pt/programa/tv/p38906 |access-date=2024-02-05 |website=www.rtp.pt}}{{Cite web |title="A Herdade" ou a nossa história para além dos lugares-comuns |url=https://www.dn.pt/cultura/a-herdade-ou-a-nossa-historia-para-alem-dos-lugares-comuns-11313818.html/ |access-date=2024-02-05 |website=Diário de Notícias |language=pt}}
