The Portuguese regulator (IVV) does not distinguish principal vs accessory varieties — every authorised casta is listed together in the caderno de especificações.
Terroir
Natural factors
- The climate of the Lisboa region is temperate, cool, and breezy, and its well-drained soils make it one of the richest wine regions in terms of diversity of grape varieties, soil types, and climate.
- The maritime influence governs mild temperatures throughout the year, associated with high winter rainfall and humid summer winds.
- The soils of the region are predominantly calcareous in nature.
Human factors
- The selection of grape varieties best adapted to the conditions of the geographic area reflects a millennia-old tradition preserved by the human factor in the Lisboa region.
Terroir / wine link
- The high winter rainfall and humid summer winds ensure a prolonged and balanced ripening of the grapes, resulting in the preservation of characteristic natural acidity and freshness.
