Portuga is made by Casa Santos Lima, a grand Portuguese estate in the Lisboa region, just north of the capitol. João Santos Lima founded it in the 19th century and it has been in the same family for three generations. Diogo Sepúlveda is the winemaker today. He has worked vintages all across the world, including Bordeaux's prestigious Pomerol and California's Napa Valley. He is a talented winemaker, who relaxes in his spare time by wrestling bulls (all muscle, no knives!). Portuga is a rich, velvety blend of traditional native varieties, with Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, aged gently in oak. Delicious either served on its own, with rich pork dishes, or tangy tomato pasta. It's an ideal wine for a barbecue too or with mature hard cheeses.

This exciting modern Portuguese white boasts a wonderful array of crisp flavours thanks to a unique blend of grapes – and meticulous winemaking. Portinho do Côvo is made by multi-award-winning Jaime Quendera, using the native grapes of Verdelho and Fernão Pires. Together they lend brilliant lemony intensity, with a hint of spice. The vines grow close to the coast, just off which lies the little island of Pessegueiro. There, legend has it, Cupid exiled three mermaids, hence the trio on the label. Mermaids aside, the coastal region is great for vines and assures a long, slow ripening for freshness and lifted aromas in the wines. Seafood features prominently on local menus - the ideal pairing for Portinho's citrusy zing.
