<p>This white wine's freshness, structure, and aromatic profile make it incredibly versatile for food pairing. It's an excellent match for lean fish, seafood, white meats (like chicken and turkey), and various appetizers. Its acidity can cut through richness, making it suitable for dishes with creamy sauces, and it also pairs beautifully with a range of cheeses, particularly those that are semi-hard or have a mild to moderate intensity</p>

<p></p><p>Quinta da Alameda Red Wine reflects the tradition, history and origin of the wines from Quinta da Alameda de Santar. Prolonged aging in French oak barrels (400 liters) and two years in the bottle brings out the personality, strength and elegance of a wine that is here to stay. With aromas of intense fruit, light vanilla and spices, the palate reveals a marked acidity, reminiscent of the granite soil and the freshness of the forest surrounding the vineyard.</p> <p>It's fruity, with notes of red fruit, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries, a light floral touch, very complex, transmitted by the diversity of the old vines. The wood is subtle, making the wine sweet, very delicate and with the robustness and tenacity of a great Dão wine.  Dão. Intense on the palate, very long and with well  tannins. This wine has a balance that leaves you  take mouthful after mouthful without tiring the palate</p>

<p></p><p>Pinhanços is a magic slope that is like a balcony facing the majestic “Serra da Estrela”. Here we have an amazing view of rough cutted ridges that seem like brodery on a towel of an altar that sometimes in immaculated white. On each hill side, a small vilage, a chapel. And small streams wrinkle the landscape, running frightned but quietly slipping to the sea</p>

<p>Casa da Passarella Villa Oliveira Vinha das Pedras Altas display a deep ruby or opaque red color. The aroma usually features a blend of red and dark fruits (such as cherry, blackberry, or plum), intertwined with mineral notes, balsamic nuances, and sometimes hints of spice, tobacco, or subtle oak, depending on the aging process. On the palate, it is typically a full-bodied and balanced wine, with well-integrated tannins, good acidity, and a long, persistent finish, reflecting the unique <i>terroir</i> of the "Pedras Altas" vineyard. For food pairing, this structured and complex red wine is ideal for accompanying robust meat dishes, such as roasted lamb or beef, game meats, and aged, intense cheeses. Its richness and firm tannins make it a perfect complement to flavorful and savory meals.</p>

Textura da Estrela Tinta Pinheira is an open-coloured wine with lots of red fruit, good acidity but very delicate</p>

<p></p><p>Behind a great wine there is always a great story. In the case of Grão Vasco, it is written with words of dedication, rigor, innovation, experience and passion. Words that tell the past, the present and the future. A start dating back to the late 50's in a small regional company - Super-Dão Winery Ltd</p>
