Duorum - Douro On the steep banks of the upper Douro around Vila Nova de Foz Coa and Castelo Melhor, lies this astonishing new plantation. It s a sizeable investment 160ha, acquired in 68 parcels, of which 40ha are currently under vine.. All the classic varieties are planted, and this is the dreamchild of José Maria Soares Franco and Joao Portugal Ramos, working in partnership to produce outstanding quality table wines in a valley where port has always held sway.

Cazas Novas Vinho Verde Cazas Novas is run by Carlos Coutinho. Located at Santa Marinha do Zezere, in the Baiao sub district of the Vinho Verde, these vineyards are the 'last outpost' before entering the red wine producing region of the Douro's Baixo Corgo. Inland, and warmer than most of the rest of the Vinho Verde, the style of wine is much broader, riper and mouth filling, while still maintaining that Vinho Verde character of minerality combined with fresh acidity and modest alcohols. This is not Alvarinho or Loureiro territory, but Arinto, with its steely backbone combining beautifully with the floral and aromatic Avesso. Together they make a less austere, more commercially attractive style of wine, yet one that maintains good structure and poise. This wine has a really classy feel to it. Cazas Novas 11 (Arinto & Avesso) 40.00/doz Newer vintage available under screwcap, just arrived August 2012 Page 7
Boas Vinhas - Dao Boas Vinhas, has been a runaway success since we launched it last year. Pale colour, high acidity, light alcohol (13%) and red cherry fruit flavour that just goes on and on. And the white is every bit a match with great minerality and freshness. Sercial and Encruzado are responsible forget any Sauvignon Blanc, you don t need it any more!

Almeida Garrett Beira Interior Jose Almeida Garrett runs this family business which lies at the foot of the Serra de Estrela mountain range (the mountains of the stars). Not only is the area breathtakingly beautiful, it also has the reputation as the fruit basket of Portugal, growing figs, oranges, lemons, apples, pears and of course, grapes. In 1993, the Almeida Garrett family took the decision to go it alone. Their vineyards lie in the Vale de Gardunha, and on the southern slopes of the Serra de Gardunha, both highly reputed for fruit production.

Quinta Foz de Arouce - Beiras The Quinta de Foz de Arouce can look back on a centuries-old winegrowing tradition begun by the King of Arouce in Arouce castle, which is currently the home of the fourth Earl of Arouce, Joáo Filipe Osório. He owns 15 hectares of vineyard (12 planted with red varieties, 3 with white) on slatey soils. The vines are around 35 years old. His son-in law is Portuguese oenologist Joao Portugal Ramos and since the beginning the red has been one of Portugal's finest. Although the estate is to the south of Bairrada, outside the recognised growing area, the wines are made largely from Baga, the tannic and acidulous main Bairrada variety. The de-stemmed grapes are fermented together with the skins for 14 days and the wine is subsequently matured for 6 months in 250-litre casks made of French and Portuguese oak, half of which are new. Annual production is around 10,000 bottles of red. Foz de Arouce red 08 (Baga & Touriga Nacional) 62.00/doz Page 10
Quinta de Sant Ana - Lisboa Quinta de Sant Ana is situated in Gradil, near Mafra, a short hop north from Lisbon. This is a cool climate region with distinct similarities to Bordeaux. Good acidity, fresh, leafy fruit and an elegant balance are the hallmarks. Owned and run by Englishman James Frost and his wife Ann, Quinta de Sant Ana now has 11 Hectares of vineyard including 1.5 Hectares planted in 2012. His seven sons help him too! The Quinta s has chosen some adventurous options, including Sauvignon Blanc, Pinto Noir and Riesling, all made in an accomplished style. But the main part of the production is given over to classic Portuguese grape varieties, with a small amount of Merlot in some blends. The style is understated elegant and classic. Dare we say Portuguese claret?

Quinta do Casal Branco - Tejo Jose Lobo de Vasconcelos runs the Quinta do Casal Branco, which lies a little to the north of Lisbon on the east bank of the Tagus, in the heart of the Tejo region. This is a large mixed farm, typical of the area and around 600 hectares in size. The land is used for growing tomatoes, melons, wheat, maize; breeding Lusitano horses and cattle, and not least, growing grapes and making wine. 140 Hectares are laid to vine, mainly Castelao and Trincadeira for the reds, and Fernao Pires & Sauvignon for the whites. Several more hectares have recently come to fruit, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Syrah, Sauvignon and Alicante Bouschet. Traditional winemaking techniques are still used today such as foot treading, combined with modern winemaking technology. In common with most Tejo wines, Casal Branco produces excellent, fruit driven red and white wines, which are both full of flavour, yet smooth and easy to drink - a highly commercial combination. Prices are very sensible.

SPAIN Arroyo Family Vineyards - Bierzo Situated in a valley bowl, totally surrounded by mountains, the Bierzo wine region enjoys a particular microclimate that means high daytime temperatures but with refreshing, cooler nights which are so important to quality wine production Victor Arroyo is owner of this brand new society having been partner in a large local winery until very recently, where he was responsible for a number of award-winning wines. Recently he decided to tread his own path.

Bodegas Arribes del Duero - Arribes Way out at the very western fringe of Spain, lying hard against the Duero/Douro river and just a stone s throw from Portugal is the new DO region of Arribes. Originally named Arribes del Duero, it recently changed its identity to simply Arribes, so that it would not be confused with the more famous DO of Ribera del Duero further east. Highly recommended is Arribes de Vettonia Malvasia 2011. The red variety here is the Juan Garcia, unique to the region. Relatively high in acidity it makes exquisite perfumed rosés, bursting with ripe tropical fruit, and earthy dry reds with a good balance of fruit, tannin and acidity.

Rodriguez Sanzo Rueda Javier Rodriguez is a Spanish flying winemaker, with innovative ideas to create really special wines. The wines he produces from the Verdejo grape variety especially really are something to shout about. His Dados Verdejo is fermented in French oak and then spends time on double lees with batonage for a period of 4 months. The vineyards where this wine is produced are set in the heart of Rueda, 750m above sea level with hot days and cool nights which give this wine a fresh zesty character, which complements the rich flavours given by the lees. A must try. Dados Verdejo white 10 45.00/doz French oak and 8 months sur lees Page 18
