Details
Ferñao Pires thrives on Lisbon's Atlantic coast, making wines of saline freshness and crisp character, and this pup is no different. Typical notes of crystalline citrus fruit dominate, with subtle white flower and peach notes. Absolutely delicious.

Adegamãe resides in the Lisboa (Lisbon) region of Portugal. This is an area that whilst being best known as the capital of the nation, is increasingly becoming more and more popular and associated with high-quality wine production. The estate was founded by the Alves family and many of Adegamãe's vineyards can be found within perfect proximity to the Atlantic. The cooling influence of the Ocean plays a pivotal role and cooling influence through the warm summer months, helping to strike the perfect balance between ripeness and freshness in their grapes. Adegamãe boasts a rich and diverse portfolio as they use the geography of Lisboa to their advantage. Their white grapes are planted closest to the sea, often giving them a mineral, saline accent. Their reds are planted in warmer sites inland, and it is playing with this proximity to the coast that has allowed them to work with a multitude of grape varieties such as Pinot Noir, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc as well as Touriga's Franca and Nacional, with the latter naturally more at home in Portugal.

Pairing guide
Hailing from Portugal’s peerless Lisboa region, this Fernão Pires wine is a crisp, delicious and refreshing bottle to enjoy alongside light and laid-back dishes shared with friends. This type of white wine is always a winner with fish and seafood recipes - everything from tinned sardines with some excellent sourdough bread to fried rice with mackerel will hit the spot, and it’s also brilliant with Portuguese favourites like salt cod cakes or seafood rice. Chicken breast salads, marinated vegetables and green olive tapenade would also be highly recommended here.
