And are well-placed to source the best of its truly remarkable wines.

A brilliant taste of Portugal’s flagship red, this one comes from fourth-generation Leonor Freitas (who was named ‘Comendadora,’ the equivalent of a knighthood) by the Portuguese government for her services to the wine industry. As you can imagine, she certainly knows how to produce a very fine wine. Made with fruit from the family’s acclaimed Vinha do Fava vineyard (wines from this vineyard have won over 80 Gold medals), and long aged in oak, this excellent red is packed with rich bramble, spice, herb and mineral character on a velvety smooth finish.

We’ve long been champions of the great wines from Jaime Quendera, as he weaves his magic in various cellars in southern Portugal. Here he’s worked with the team at the renowned Co-operative Pegões, listed as the ‘best co-op in Portugal’ a few years back. Sourcing the grapes from the Setúbal Peninsula, he’s blended top native varieties Castelão, Aragonez and Touriga Nacional.

This popular blend of local grapes makes an expressive, fresh, and fruity rosé. As Jaime says about the ideal conditions of the region and its fabulous grapes, "wines from the Setúbal – lucky us, lucky you". Enjoy this lively pink well chilled, to best taste the burst of crisp summer berries that cascade from the glass. Sip solo or with a light seafood platter.

If you like dry, bright, berry-fresh rosés, then you'll love Portugal’s new wave rosados. This country cultivates a myriad of exciting red varieties which, when picked early, with lots of refreshing zip, make perfect crisp pinks. Amoras is from a single estate 40km north of Lisbon, Casa Santos Lima, which has been owned by the same family for four generations.

The wine is named after the wild blackberry bushes that frame the vineyards, giving the local wildlife something other than tasty grapes to feed on! For this refreshing rosé, the winemaker selected Portugal’s prized native grapes, plus a portion of deep, blackcurrant Cabernet. It's a tasty drop on its own and ideal with seafood, salads, at a barbecue or with Asian cuisine.

We've won multiple awards for our Portuguese wines and it's wines like this and customer enthusiasm that keeps us going back for more. It's from a grand estate dating back to the 17th century which once served as the King of Portugal’s falconry. Lobo e Falcão (Wolf and Falcon) is a tribute to the owner's José Lobo de Vasconcelos’ ancestors, who founded the estate.

The wine’s a blend of native grapes Fernão Pires, Alvarinho and Muscat, which thrive in the property’s sandy soils and ripen to perfection under the Portuguese sun. You’ll love its aromas of juicy, ripe peach and orange blossom, with rich, bright flavours of stone fruit, spice and grapey freshness. Opulent and aromatic, this is a top pick solo or with creamy chicken or a risotto.
