Vasco da Gama, the famous Argonaut, 1st Count of Vidigueira and Admiral of the Indies, embarked on an epic voyage of discovery from 1497 to 1499. The discovery of the sea route to India inspired the creation of 7 “Wine Acts”, with 7 stops corresponding to different stages of this Portuguese epic.
Each “Act” represents a stage of the journey, progressing through aromas and flavours, just like wines. Discover the different ranges of wines from the Vidigueira, Cuba and Alvito Wine Cooperative and be amazed by what you discover.
“Imagine yourself aboard a ship. Magnificent, its oak wood still creaking, white sails lined up ready to be hoisted.
It drifts gently and patiently, as if it doesn’t mind the departure being delayed.
It is early; there is still a silence in the air.”
