Charming Wine Tour Alentejo
per person
Alentejo Wine is a Way of Life
Going through the Alentejo of immense plains, we see that in it flourishes and grows a heritage of traditional products.
The history of the vine and wine is inseparable from the history of Alentejo. Having had periods of greater importance and growth during the Roman occupation, and near extinction during the Moorish occupation, its growth was resumed after the Christian Reconquista. In the 16th century, vine production blossomed as never before in Alentejo, giving rise to illustrious and acclaimed wines.
Each grape has its own characteristics, offering different flavours that give rise to wines with different profiles, flavours and aromas.
Alentejo wines are known for being soft and appealing. Alentejo white wine is known for being a good companion and Alentejo red wine known for being a good advisor. And it is this wine companion and adviser that invites you to visit the Alentejo to realize how wine plays a fundamental role in the day to day life of this region.
