The Wine
South of Lisbon on Portugal’s Atlantic coast, the Setúbal Peninsula is famous for its rolling Atlantic waves and its long-lived, fortified sweet wines. However, the sunny climate, tempered by cooling ocean breezes, is also proving itself with juicy, fruit-forward reds. Parker-rated winemaker Jaime Quendera firmly believes in the region and is dedicated to bringing it to the world’s attention. He says “I love being able to create, blend and shape my wines – I strive always to produce the best wine possible.” Here’s a delicious new release from him – an easy-going Portuguese red, crafted from native Castelão, with some Touriga Nacional and Alicante. Brimful with juicy plum fruit, here’s a supple red to sip solo, or with simple dishes.
