Discover the grape variety: Fernao Pires

In Portugal, it is one of the most planted white grape varieties, and we have found it to be very similar to the torrontés grown in Spain (Galicia). It can be found in Australia and South Africa, but is almost unknown in France.

The wine region of Lisboa

Lisboa (formerly Estremadura) is a prolific wine region located at the Center of Portugal's Atlantic coast. Despite being one of the country's most productive winemaking areas, its name remains relatively obscure in wine terms, as its wines have traditionally been labeled with the names of the local sub-regions, which include Alenquer, Bucelas and Colares. The region is also home to Portugal's capital, Lisbon. The region fell under the VR (Vinho Regional) classification until 2008, when the category was renamed IGP (Indicaciones Geográficas Protegidas) to bring it into line with the rest of Europe.
