The wine region of Bucelas
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.
The wine region of Lisboa
Vast coastal IGP north of Lisbon, Portugal's largest producer by volume. Accessible, sun-filled reds: fruity, spicy Castelão, dense Touriga Nacional (black fruit, violet), fleshy Trincadeira, deep Alicante Bouschet. Fresh, mineral whites: straight, lemony Arinto (star of Bucelas), aromatic Fernão Pires, round Vital and Malvasia. Structured reds from Alenquer, sparkling at Óbidos.
The word of the wine: Black Grenache
Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
