Discover the grape variety: Genouillet
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple palate and preserved acidity, showing understated aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and herbaceous notes. Rustic profile now almost gone from commercial cultivation. Preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of France. Rare French white variety, formerly grown in central France, studied for its heritage interest.

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: Flavours
There are generally four so-called fundamental flavours: acidity, bitterness, sweetness and saltiness. The first three are considered to be the building blocks of the structure of wines. They are perceived by the taste buds that cover the surface of the tongue.
