This week I go in depth on one of the best value regions of Portugal -- Alentejo. These wines are mainly blends and they are as easy on the palate as they are on the wallet -- a perfect combo!  Photo: Vineyards in Alentejo outside of Évora. Credit: WFNP   Located in southern Portugal, a two hour drive east of Lisbon, Alentejo is huge -- representing almost one-third of the Iberian nation. Although in the past the region was known only as the breadbasket of Portugal and as the world's largest supplier of cork (nearly half of the world's  corks come from Alentejo's cork trees), today the region is experiencing a wine renaissance. After a rocky history, Alentejo has grown and its reputation has expanded with it.    Known for fruity, lush and plush red blends (about 75% of the wine) of grapes like Alicante Bouschet, Aragonez (Tempranillo), Trincadeira, Alfrochero, and Castelão, there are some higher end versions that sometimes contain Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Syrah as well. The whites are in the minority and are fruity, soft, yet balanced blends as well. The tropical, tangerine noted and soft Antão Vaz is Alentejo's most important white with Arinto used for acidity, Fernão Pires for aroma and soft textures and Roupeiro for aroma as well.  Map: Rota dos Vinhos, from the Wines of Alentejo   This show covers all the bases on this fascinating region -- from its turbulent history to the climate, terroir, and the many DOPs that each have a distinct identiy.    Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Join the community today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   This show is brought to you by my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access – THE place to discover your next favorite bottle.

In Alentejo, techniques to conserve water are transforming the outlook for the region. As large olive oil and wine estates start to deploy regenerative farming techniques, we see the landscape come alive with biodiversity thriving. Indigenous grape varieties mean that new wine styles that are both elegant and charming are giving Alentejo a new character that resonates with international markets. This is an exciting chapter in the journey of this wine region that predates the Romans.Download the FREE ebook: https://sustentabilidade.vinhosdoalentejo.pt/uploads/ebook/into-the-heat.pdf

Sustainability is often framed and presented as a purely environmental subject. The truth is that the economics of any given sustainability effort are underpinned by economic viability. It is the market place that determines whether products are desired and thus bought. If the producers get it wrong, there is no business, meaning job losses and environmental objectives are abandoned. Here we dive into the economic challenges that face Alentejo's wine industry but also are mirrored in many regions around the world.Download the FREE ebook: https://sustentabilidade.vinhosdoalentejo.pt/uploads/ebook/into-the-heat.pdfFrancisco Mateus was the President of the Wines of Alentejo wine commission at the time of this interview. He stepped down in 2025. His broader picture view helps us to place the economic pillar of sustainability into a broader context.

In this episode Nick Breeze speaks with a range of producers hearing how critical it is to invest in communities, building house, schools, offering scholarships to children and transport links.Download the FREE ebook: https://sustentabilidade.vinhosdoalentejo.pt/uploads/ebook/into-the-heat.pdfWithout communities in this scarcely populated region, there would be no development of regenerative agriculture. Without the economic structure of business the land, degraded from decades past, would turn to desert and spread north. Supporting communities in Alentejo is literally holding back the Sahara.

Hoje vemos olhar para a Associação do Grupo Coral eInstrumental "Ecos do Alentejo". Embora a data da sua constituição seja posterior (1993) o grupo foi fundado em 1982 e mantém-se vivo na memória de todos os que assistiram às suas atuações.De há anos a esta parte, a dificuldade de manter um grupo tão numeroso, obrigou à sua reconversão no grupo de danças e cantares tradicionais "Água Doce", que diversificou o âmbito musical que é agora nacional, mas mantendo as modas tradicionais do Alentejo.É uma conversa, para a qual convidamos José Chumbo, desde sempre a alma desta associação e destes grupos.

Herdou o nome 'do Bem' da família, não sendo nenhum alter ego profissional ou 'da moda'. No entanto, diz ter a malícia de qualquer outro comum mortal. Na vida gosta de futebol e de sobremesas, mas é na secção dos frigoríficos dos hipermercados que encontra o seu pior inimigo. Procura, no stand-up, brincar com as camadas dos problemas mundanos que afetam todas as pessoas da mesma maneira, mas continua a ser a mesma Luana que contava mentiras na escola para se adaptar. No entanto, é na vida pessoal que gosta de ser de verdade. Confessa que o dia em que percebeu a sua sexualidade foi o mais libertador de sempre: "Foi um momento de fogo de artifício. Gostava que toda a gente tivesse a experiência que eu tive (...) é mesmo um alívio". A apresentadora e humorista falou ainda sobre como os pais lidaram quando lhes contou sobre a sua homosexualidade: "Quando eu contei não estava a dar uma novidade a ninguém. Primeiro porque estava muito apaixonada por aquela miúda, e segundo porque eu sempre fui bastante maria rapaz e eu sinto que as pessoas à minha volta estavam todas só à espera do dia".

Touriga Nacional is, beyond a doubt, the most important, praised, and discussed red grape in Portugal. An essential part of Port and the dry wines of the regions of Dão and Douro, this powerful grape has spread throughout Portugal and has captured the imagination of winemakers from Australia to South Africa to California and more. Photo: Touriga Nacional. Credit: Unsplash   In this show, I go through the highlights of this beautiful grape and talk about how it went from near extinction to the Queen grape of Portugal. I review the origins, vineyard habits, aromas and flavors, and then discuss the specific places the grape grows and why it thrives where it does.    Touriga is not just a fantastic grape, it will be an important factor in dealing with our changing climate.

Enquanto mestre da crónica, Rui Cardoso Martins recebeu dois prémios Gazeta por “Levante-se o Réu”, pelos relatos do que se passa nos tribunais portugueses e o seu romance “Deixem Passar o Homem Invisível” foi distinguido pelo Grande Prémio de Literatura da APE, em 2009. No ano passado publicou o seu 5º e último romance, “As melhoras da morte”, onde reflete sobre os contrastes do Alentejo, que canta as florinhas e os passarinhos e esconde debaixo do capote um lado mais sanguinário, solitário e triste. Nesta conversa, Rui recorda os anos de repórter no jornal Público e conta a gota de água que o fez desistir do jornalismo e que envolve uma conferência de imprensa com Marques Mendes. O tal que depois foi transformado no boneco “Marques Pentes”, o “ganda nóia”, no programa de humor “Contra Informação”, na RTP, que Rui co-criou durante 14 anos.

Nous sommes en décembre 1922, à Evora, au Portugal. C'est dans cette ville de la région de l'Alentejo, au sud du pays, que se tient le congrès de l'Association des travailleurs ruraux. Et c'est là qu'Antonio Gonçalves, voyageur de commerce et grand défenseur du projet libertaire, est invité à prononcer une allocution. L'assemblée syndicale a lieu dans une salle luxueuse, témoin de l'architecture bourgeoise du dix-neuvième siècle. « Le bonheur de tous les êtres dans la société future », c'est le titre du discours de Gonçalves. « Comme je l'aime le travail, le travail conscient, mélodique, qui se libère de la tyrannie du salariat, le travail qui ne nous rend pas esclave, qui découle de notre volonté souveraine », s'exclame le trentenaire. « C'est de la vile calomnie, poursuit-il, de celle de ceux qui prétendent que les travailleurs sont les ennemis des intellectuels (…) ce n'est pas la haine qui nous guide, c'est notre amour et la soif de la justice. » Il conclut, sous les vivats de l'assemblée : « Nous, les avancés, les libertaires, les socialistes de toutes les écoles, nous voulons l'abondance du pain pour toutes les bouches, l'abondance de lumière pour toutes les âmes ». Alors qu'il est largement méconnu, aujourd'hui, Antonio Gonçalves a porté, avec obstination, le combat des anarchistes non violents, en créant, notamment, une utopie libertaire nommée « La commune des lumières ». Avec nous : Jean Lemaitre, auteur de « La commune des lumières – Portugal 1918. Une utopie libertaire » ; éd.Otium.
