Alentejo, stretching across southern Portugal, is a region where rolling plains meet sun-drenched vineyards, and time seems to flow at a slower pace. Known for its sweeping landscapes, whitewashed villages, and warm hospitality, Alentejo has become one of Portugal’s most celebrated wine regions.
The climate here is warm and dry, with hot summers and cool nights—perfect conditions for ripening grapes while preserving their freshness. The region's diverse soils, from granite and schist to limestone and clay, give winemakers a rich palette to craft wines that balance power and elegance. Alentejo is renowned for both red and white wines. Reds are often bold, full-bodied, and fruit-forward, with velvety tannins and notes of ripe berries, spices, and earthy warmth.
