Why You Should Drink More Wine from Portugal.
Because Portugal's wine culture developed in relative isolation, there are many grape varieties that grow nowhere else in the world.
So if you don't recognize the grape variety on a Portuguese wine label, that's a good thing.
You will be amazed at how good they taste and how different they are. There are over 250 indigenous varieties in total. For many wine experts, Portugal is the last frontier of wine in Western Europe. There is still so much to taste and explore. We have been traveling around the country for years and know all the winemakers personally.
