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: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
