Discover the grape variety: Muscat Ottonel
Delicate and fine muscat whites with a tender palate and moderate acidity, on intense and refined aromas of orange blossom, rose, fresh grape, citrus, white peach and airy muscat (more subtle than Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains). Made as aromatic dry aperitif whites (Alsace, Baden), off-dry and sumptuous botrytised liquoreux (Burgenland in Austria, Cotnari in Romania, Tokaj). Created in the 19th century by Robert Moreau (Angers), a cross of Chasselas × Muscat de Saumur.

The wine region of Portalegre
DOC sub-region, the coolest and most humid of the Portuguese Alentejo north-east (Serra de São Mamede up to 800 m, granitic clay soils of the Portalegre plateau, many old vines): Aragonez (24 %), Trincadeira (17 %) and Alicante Bouschet are the signature reds — fresh and complex with ripe red fruit, altitude-driven mineral tension and balanced structure. Antão Vaz (26 %), Roupeiro (18 %) and Arinto (16 %) as elegant whites. A truly distinctive altitude terroir.
The wine region of Alentejano
Star of southern Portugal's great reds, sunny and opulent wines. Typical blends: round fruity Aragonez (Tempranillo), spicy Trincadeira, Touriga Nacional (black fruits, violet), deep teinturier Alicante Bouschet, juicy Castelão. Fleshy reds with notes of plum, black cherry, cocoa and sweet spices, melted tannins. Ample fresh Antão Vaz and Arinto whites.
The word of the wine: Ventilation
Aeration is the process of decanting the wine to oxygenate it and thus promote the expression of the aromatic range and the harmony of the flavours.
