Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc as complements.
The wine region of Tejo
West-central Portuguese region along the Tagus, formerly Ribatejo, 17,000 ha. Supple, fruity reds with signature notes of plum, cherry, Mediterranean herbs and sweet spices, round tannins and a generous palate - fleshy everyday wines. Flagship Castelão (blackberry, tobacco), concentrated Trincadeira, perfumed Touriga Nacional (violet, black fruits), spicy Tinta Roriz. Whites: floral Fernão Pires and lively citrusy Arinto.
The word of the wine: Effervescent
Any wine loaded with CO2 (carbon dioxide), which is revealed in the form of bubbles, reinforcing the freshness effect in the mouth. This gas production is the result of what is called the second fermentation in the bottle. It occurs in champagnes and sparkling wines such as crémants.
