Montaria Reserva Portugal 2015
About the wine
This smooth and seductive blend is worth evvvvvery penny
- We like to think of this as Montaria's confident, gorgeous older sister - full, lush and totally tantalyzing. It's a bit more grown up than the Montaria, and almost intimidatingly perfect.
- The Lisbon area, once known as Estremadura, is an ancient and proven wine country with a rich history... but most Americans aren't familiar with the region's ripe, juicy wines.
- Angels support Luis so that he can make bold, daring wines like this Reserva that really take advantage of his country's natural strengths (Mediterranean warmth combined with a cooling Atlantic influence).

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Luis Vieira
- Born in Lisbon, Luis is a third-generation wine producer but the first in his family to have his own vineyards. His grandfather started the family winemaking business, which Luis now leads, to bring Angels a taste of Portugal.
- His vineyards in Lisbon are not only planted with classic Portuguese varieties – but also Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Syrah and Alicante Bouchet. Combine that with vineyards in Alentejo and Tejo, insider knowledge and his expert team, Luis delivers exceptional value wines.
- If you like to get lots of wine for your money, look no further. Luis is your guy – your winemaker of the largely undiscovered hidden gems of Portugal.
