Collection: Wines of Portugal - Premium Portuguese Wines Collection

Portugal is a country known for its rich history, stunning landscapes, and vibrant culture. But one of the lesser-known treasures of this beautiful nation is its wine. Portuguese wines have been gaining international recognition in recent years, thanks to their unique flavours and high quality. In fact, Portugal is the 11th largest wine producer in the world, with over 350 native grape varieties and 14 distinct wine regions.

One of the reasons why Portuguese wines stand out is because they are made using traditional methods that have been passed down from generation to generation. Many wineries still use hand-picked grapes and age their wines in oak barrels, resulting in wines with complex aromas and flavours.

When it comes to grape varieties, Portuguese wines have a diverse range to offer. The most famous red grape variety is Touriga Nacional, which produces bold and full-bodied reds with intense dark fruit flavours. Another popular red grape is Tinta Roriz (also known as Tempranillo), which adds earthy notes and spice to blends. For white wines, Alvarinho is often used in Vinho Verde production for its fresh acidity and citrusy notes.

When it comes to food pairings, Portuguese wines are incredibly versatile. Red wines such as Douro and Alentejo pair well with hearty meat dishes like lamb or beef stews, while the fresh and light Vinho Verde is an ideal accompaniment for seafood and salads. For cheese lovers, try pairing a glass of Tawny Port with aged cheddar or a creamy blue cheese for a match made in heaven.

Portuguese wines offer an array of flavours and styles that will satisfy any wine lover's palate. From elegant whites to bold reds, each bottle tells a unique story of its region and winemaking tradition. So next time you're looking to expand your wine collection, don't forget to give Portuguese wines a try – you won't be disappointed!
