Casa Santos Lima Quinta das Amoras is a captivating white wine from the Lisboa region that showcases an exquisite blend of Arinto, Fernão Pires, Vital, Rabo d'Ovelha, and Chardonnay.

Its acidity is bright and lively, providing a mouthwatering and invigorating experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing tantalizing notes of stone fruits and citrus, complemented by hints of floral undertones.

Best known for its port dessert wine, Portugal is also home to some seriously worthwhile—though frequently overlooked—red and white table wines. This small country on the Iberian Peninsula has a wide range of climates, allowing it to produce everything from light and crisp whites in the Atlantic-cooled northwest to ripe and juicy reds in the hot and hilly Douro Valley. What often sets apart Portuguese wines is that they are often made from local grapes rather than more familiar international varieties. Difficult to pronounce (but a joy to drink!), common varietals include Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cão, and Loureiro.
