<p>For more than 20 years, the name João Portugal Ramos has been associated with Portuguese wines, first as a consulting winemaker for well known brands of wine and since 1992 as a bottling producer.</p> <p>The success and the prizes accumulated throughout his career have earned him the national and international recognition as one of the main responsible for the evolution of the Portuguese wines in the last decade.</p> <p>The Alentejo was the region chosen to produce its first wines. In 1990, João Portugal Ramos planted the first five hectares of vineyard in Estremoz, where he has lived since 1988, starting his personal project. It expanded its activity beyond the Alentejo from 1989, reaching Ribatejo, Beiras, Douro and Vinho Verde</p>
<p></p> <p>Esporão Private Selection is produced by Herdade do Esporão. This Alentejo wine is richly textured and elegant, toasty oak adding to a well-structured palate; long, deep and persistent finish.</p> <p> </p> <p></p> <p></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>The Sovibor - Soc. Vinhos de Borba, Lda. Is a Commercial Society by Quotas constituted by public deed, the 16 of December of 1968.<br />It is the result of the merger of two small producers who started their activities many years before 1968 and later created the firms Manuel Joaquim Mira and Domingos Luiz Pinto & Filho, Lda., Both with wide traditions in the wine field. Therefore, and as a result of such merger, SOVIBOR is managed by people traditionally linked to the wine business.</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>G de Duende Rosé Wine is dark copper in colour, not at all appealing. On the nose, the evolutionary capacity is almost assaulting, and in the mouth the volume is immense, ending with a fine tension wrapped in iodised minerality.</p> <p></p>
<p></p><p>Nunes Barata is a wine project located in Cabeção (Upper Alentejo, in the north region of Portugal). Due to its exceptional terroir, is an area with a unique background in the production of high quality wines, full of character and is known for its famous wines made in clay pots. Here, the vineyard and the wine were, since always, the main economic activity.</p>
