ALENTEJO AND ITS
RICH WINE HERITAGE
Alentejo is one of Portugal’s oldest and largest wine regions, with a tradition dating back over 2,000 years to Roman times. This vast region, with over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year, offers the perfect setting for producing exceptional wines.
Through the centuries, the region’s viticultural history has been one of resilience and innovation.
Estremoz is known as the "White City" — not just for the whiteness of its houses, but above all for its vast white marble quarries. This marble features in some of the world’s most iconic places, such as the Palace of Versailles and the steps of the Vatican.
SUCH A SPECIAL WINE COULD ONLY BE PRODUCED IN A PRIVILEGED LOCATION
In the transition from limestone to shale, with a moderate microclimate, large diurnal temperature variations, and frequent foggy mornings due to the presence of a vast aquifer, Estremoz offers unique edaphoclimatic conditions. These enable more balanced grape ripening, resulting in wines with greater harmony.
