The Setúbal Peninsula is one of Portugal’s most charismatic wine regions, located just south of Lisbon, between the Tagus estuary, the Arrábida mountains, and the Atlantic Ocean. Its Mediterranean climate, tempered by maritime breezes, along with sandy and limestone soils, creates exceptional conditions for producing expressive wines with a true sense of place. The region is world-renowned for its Moscatel de Setúbal, one of Portugal’s most iconic fortified wines, celebrated for its aromatic intensity and unmistakable character. But Setúbal also shines through its robust and aromatic reds, often crafted from the region’s signature grape Castelão. Alongside it, varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Alicante Bouschet, Syrah, and Aragonez yield complex, full-bodied wines with excellent aging potential. On the white side, fresh and fruity wines made from Fernão Pires, Arinto, and Verdelho reflect the Atlantic influence and the diversity of the terroir, while the rosés stand out for their lightness, freshness, and modern appeal. Every bottle from the Setúbal Peninsula expresses the balance between tradition and innovation, the diversity of its grape varieties, and centuries of winemaking heritage, making this one of Portugal’s most captivating regions. Our exclusive hampers bring together the very best of the Setúbal Peninsula – award-winning wines, authentic grape varieties, and the essence of a region that beautifully represents the soul of Portuguese wine.
