Alentejo is the largest wine region in Portugal and also the one with the greatestdiversity as it gathers eight different sub-regions: Portalegre, Borba, Redondo, Reguengos, Évora, Vidigueira, Moura and Granja-Amareleja. Its 22,000 hectares of vineyards spread across plains, hills and mountains (the main ones are S.Mamede, Ossa and Mendro), and those vineyards lay on different types of soil: clay, limestone, marble, sand, schist, granite...The climate is continental Mediterranean, with greater thermal amplitudes in the interior regions, closer to the border with Spain. The Alentejo vineyard reflects awide variety of grapes, with predominance of white grapes Antão Vaz, Roupeiro and Arinto and red grapes Aragonez, Trincadeira, Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional and Syrah.
Although they were expelled, the Moors left many traces, not only in the language but also in the gastronomy and architecture which is one of Portugal's ex-libris. The originality of the architectural structures and ornaments are typical features of this civilization, as well as the horse shoe arch of Visigothic influence that has become a portuguese hall mark.
