Quinta das Maias Tinto
£14.50
In the foothills of the Serra de Estrela (Star Mountain), Quinta das Maias was first established in 1893.

The name of the estate derives from the Portuguese word for the month of May, which is when the Weaver’s Broom (known as Giesta, but here as Maias) flowers here.
Red wines from the Dao should always demonstrate a certain succulence from a combination of altitude and granitic soils, but Maias Tinto goes the extra mile. At these even higher vineyards (around 650m), Jaen (Tinta Mencia) captures in the glass delicious crunchy fruit in this medium bodied wine.

A medium sweet wine with aromas of dried fruit, honey and floral notes. It has a slight smokiness on the palate yet finishes fresh and tangy. Delightful on its own, but partners very well with semi-sweet dishes (such as poached figs, ginger cake), and can be very successful with a cheeseboard.

This is a great accompaniament to any Mediterranean dishes, especially lamb.
Soalheiro Allo

£18.95
Vinho Verde taken to the next level. Quite rich and scented with both fresh and cooked apple, apricots with thyme and a floral, honeyed palate with that unmistakeable Vinho Verde acidity and lively, long finish.

Fitapreta Touriga Vai Nua
£19.95
Antonio Macanita is the winemaker at Fitapreta in Alto Alentejo and he is winning awards left, right and centre. Despite this, he is very adventurous in his wine making, being likened to some of our favourite South African producers, Pieter Walser or Adi Badenhorst. Having trained at top wineries in Napa Valley, Bordeaux and Australia, he’s settled in Portugal making great wines in largely forgotton territories with indiginous grapes.
Translating as ‘Touriga in the nude’, this is 100% Touriga Nacional grapes; unoaked to allow an abundudance of bright red fruits to shine – raspberry and redcurrant dominate the nose and palate. This is a big, bold and complex wine that is utterly delicious.

The local village’s tradition of making chalk drawings on people’s houses to celebrate Epiphany are the inspiration of many of the bottle labels.

Soalheiro Granit Alvarinho
£23.00
The Soalheiro Granit is all about minerality. It offers less fruit and more acidity, revealing an unusual style of Alvarinho from the mountains. Its elegance and crisp texture make this a great foodie wine.
Made from Alvarinho grapes from a specific selection of small vineyards planted in granitic soil. These vineyards lie at around 400 meters in altitude in the sub-region of Monção and Melgaço. As the vineyard placement increases in altitude, the fruity characteristics of Alvarinho give way to more acidity and mineral notes.
Saroto Tinto
£23.00
Saroto Tinto is made from a small, old, field-blend parcel comprised of old-fashioned red and white Douro varieties. The resultant wine is full of wild forest fruit, lots of berries with a kick of natural sourness. Plenty of fresh acidity adds juiciness and balances the rustic, grippy tannins, making for quite a light red. Earthy minerality adds extra complexity and the finish is long and moreish.
Monte de Peceguina White
£24.00
This is a white blend from the younger vines around the ‘Monte da Peceguina’. Fresh aromas of orchard and tropical fruits. Good texture, balanced acidity with a fruity but dry finish. Superb when accompanied by fish dishes.

Its fair to say that Quinta dos Roques single-handedly revived the reputation of the Dao’s finest white varietal, and still enjoys the reputation as the finest exponent of Encruzado. Increasingly, Luis Lourenco prefers to keep the oak element in the background, and let the grape’s citrussy profile express itself as much as possible. Quinta dos Roques Encruzado is regularly rated as one of the country’s leading dry white wines. Perfect with seafood or spicy dishes.
