Grape

Encruzado, Maria Gomes, Bical

This white is fresh, with a strong mineral character, high acidity and great precision. Its finish is very long, noble and balanced. The fact that the grapes come from two regions, Dão and Bairrada, results in a unique blend that develops beautifully in the bottle. Encruzado do Dão contributes to the perfect balance between sugar and acidity and to the extraordinary structure. Maria Gomes and Bical contribute to balanced acidity and citrus aromas.

Alexandre de Almeida, founder of the oldest hotel chain in Portugal with the same name, started producing Buçaco wines in 1917, when, after many visits to European hotels, including some on the French Côte D'Azur, he realized what wine meant. Hotel Winery concept. He then created his own wine cellar at Palácio do Buçaco, producing wines that would come to be known as the glorious "Vinhos do Buçaco". At the beginning of the 20th century, the wine was born that would become an icon, albeit intentionally kept out of the spotlight. Its creator, Alexandre de Almeida, adopted the concept of luxury hotels with their own wine. Looking back, from the first harvests, Buçaco wines were served to kings, queens and heads of state, as evidenced by the letter, proudly kept in the Buçaco Palace Hotel. These wines were cult objects, limited to very restricted circles. Its fantastic and noble labels carry the symbol of its nobility to this day.
