A TRIBUTE to wine and to the region
In Alentejo, wine is more than tradition — it’s identity, culture, and an authentic reflection of the land it comes from. With roots dating back to Roman times, this is one of Portugal’s most remarkable wine regions — shaped by vast plains, rich soils and a warm climate that brings depth and character to each harvest.
The Enoteca Évora was created to honour this legacy
A space for those who wish to taste the Alentejo through its wines, explore new vintages, and discover the soul of the region in every glass.
Here, you’ll find over 400 local wine references, immersive tastings, and unique moments of connection.
Map of flavours
Each bottle tells the story of its origin, and in Alentejo, that story takes shape across nine sub-regions, each with a unique profile:
Borba / Structured and elegant wines, with firm tannins and complex aromas.
Évora / Smooth and well-balanced, shaped by the terroir surrounding our hotel.
Granja-Amareleja / Full-bodied and intense, shaped by extreme heat.
Moura / Refined and soft, influenced by the Mediterranean climate.
Portalegre / Unlike any other, with high-altitude vineyards producing fresh, vibrant wines.
Round / Harmonious and velvety, with great versatility.
Reguengos / One of the most prestigious sub-regions, known for bold and expressive reds.
Vidigueira / The home of Alentejo’s iconic whites, marked by minerality and balanced acidity.
Each tasting at our Enoteca is a journey across the plains of Alentejo — a chance to explore its subtleties and the stories behind each wine
