Wines
The combination of climate, soil type and grape varieties have turned the Alentejo into the cradle of a new generation of modern wine producers who produce superior quality wines with characteristics deservedly recognised in competitions both nationally and internationally, such as the D.O.C. and V.Q.P.R.D. wines from the areas of Reguengos, Borba, Redondo and Vidigueira. These are represented on the wine list, revealing the vitality and delicacy of traditional grape casts such as Trincadeira, Aragonez, Rabo de Ovelha, Periquita, Roupeiro, Antão Vaz, Manteúdo that confer a unique freshness to the intensely fruity whites and a robust complex of aromas to the garnet coloured red wines with their intense aromas of wood and evolution.
