SUMMARY

BEEF & WINES
5 years after the first edition of Beef & Wines labels, in 2018 they return with new harvests but with the same philosophy: easy drinking wines with an amazing food pairing profile. In a first range we have the "Unoaked" which are jovial and very fresh. In a superior range we have our Reserva which is the result of the first harvest of a new vine in the Douro Superior, expressing a higher tannin structure, as well as, a stronger colour and aromatic components.

MEET MADEIRA
Since 1993, launch date for the first Madeira still wine, the production and the quality of these wines have grown at breakneck speed, highlighting the great exuberance of the whites, the freshness of the roses and the elegance of the reds.
