Cortes de Cima red wine is an Alentejo wine. It presents smooth tannins and persistent finish
In 1988, A Danish-American couple set out in a sailboat to find a place to start a family and plant a vineyard. They came to Alentejo, and in a land of white varieties, they planted red. And so begins the story of Cortes de Cima Family Vineyards
<p></p><p>VINILOURENÇO is based in the Upper Douro, in Poço do Canto village near the City of Meda. It was created with the mission of transforming and revitalizing the production of the vineyards that began to be planted in the 80's by Horacio Lourenço, after returning from Angola. His wine passion led him to develop his heritage</p>
<p></p><p>Located between Mangualde and Nelas, in place of Abrunhosa do Mato, Quinta dos Roques is well the example of the spirit with which the new Dão is being built. From the early Roques, more than a century ago, the vine and wine are part of the daily life of this family</p>
<p></p> <p>Anselmo Mendes was born and raised in Monção. It was there that since childhood he became familiar with the culture of the vineyard and the production of wine.<br />The Alvarinho grape variety and its wine, produced there, entered his life in such a way that today Anselmo Mendes and Alvarinho are related</p>
<p></p><p>Quinta da Plansel are situated about 100km from Lisbon, in the southeastern part of the city of Montemor-o-Novo. They have around 75 hectares of vineyards that are an integral part of the DOC area of Évora</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p>
<p></p><p>The Symington family, with Scottish, English and Portuguese ancestry has been present in the Douro for five generations — since 1882 — and through the current generation’s great grandmother, the family’s links to the wines of the Douro span 14 generations, to the mid-17th century and to the very beginnings of the history of Port</p>
<p></p><p>Quinta do Ventozelo is one of the largest and oldest Douro Quintas. It has been passing through different hands over the centuries, hands that shaped it and transformed it to what it is today.</p>
<p></p><p>On the hot plains of the Baixo Alentejo, just a few kilometres from the city of Beja, is one of the oldest wine estates in the region. Its vineyards represent decades of history that Henrique Uva has preserved and farmed for many years and which he always wanted to develop as an independent producer.<br />In 2004, he achieved his dream, with the project that goes by the name of Henrique Uva/Herdade da Mingorra. The Winery is surrounded by 1,400 hectares of a landscape that can be considered exuberant, such is the diversity of plants and fauna, with several river basins forming veritable oases. The Winery is a true place of worship. A place where modernity and functionality can be found alongside indelible traditional techniques.</p>
<p></p><p>Ruby colour with some violet hints, medium concentration. On the nose, lots of red woodland fruit, some undergrowth. Fresh attack, good fruit with hints of pomegranate. Very fine, long and structured.</p>
<p></p><p>Viosinho da Malhadinha is a wine that evades our house's style, without having a very expressive nose, but with soft floral and mineral notes. Its richness resides on the mouth, medium structure and good volume but balanced with a fine and sharp acidity that makes the wine very elegant and hard to resist</p>
<p></p><p>Monte da Raposinha Grande Reserva Chardonnay presents notes of orange peel and ripe citrus fruit, baked apple, light buttery flavours and integrated barrel notes. On the palate it has good volume, balanced acidity and a surprisingly fresh finish.</p>
<p></p><p>Herdade Grande Viosinho White Wine has a greenish-yellow colour. Aromas of stone fruit and pear, with hints of pineapple. The palate is creamy and rich, balanced by a vibrant acidity that denotes its terroir of origin</p>
