Historic Portuguese DOC 20 km north of Lisbon (Lisboa sub-region), sheltered from Atlantic extremes by the Serra de Montejunto, fossiliferous chalky marl soils called "caeiras". Arinto is the exclusive signature white (≥75%) — one of Portugal's greatest varieties: dry, taut and refined with vibrant notes of citrus, green apple, flowers and a mineral-saline touch, crisp acidity (close to a great Riesling), superb ageing potential. Esgana Cão as a lively complement.
