The Wine
Portugal’s characterful reds are woefully under represented over here. But we’re righting that wrong with full-flavoured beauties like Amoras. It comes from Casa Santos Lima, a grand, family-run property near Lisbon and the Atlantic coast. The winery was founded by Joaquim Santos Lima in the late 19th century, and three generations later is one of Portugal’s most go-ahead cellars, with Maria João Santos Lima and José Luís Santos Lima Oliveira da Silva, granddaughter and great grandson of the founder, at the helm. Amoras brings together four cracking local grape varieties: leafy raspberry Castelão, juicy cherry-rich Camarate, cassis-laden Touriga Nacional and plummy Alicante Bouschet. Superb as a glass on its own or with pork-bean casserole.
