Estremadura
A gently hilly region to the northeast of Lisbon with generous sunshine in the growing season as well as an Atlantic influence to the climate. Estremadura is a Vinho Regional that produces a good percentage of Portugal’s Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay. The more moderate climate allows for a balanced development of the varietals. Included within its boundaries are three of Portugal’s oldest DO’s: Colares, Carcavelos and Bucelas .
