Produced in the Dão region, Evidência Encruzado Reserva 2023 reflects the character of one of Portugal’s most historic wine areas. The region’s vineyards, planted predominantly on granitic soils and influenced by a temperate climate, are known for producing wines marked by natural acidity and structural balance. Encruzado, one of the region’s most distinctive white grape varieties, is particularly well suited to these conditions and forms the foundation of this wine.


After harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and prepared for fermentation before alcoholic fermentation takes place under controlled conditions. The fermentation is conducted at approximately 28 °C, allowing the wine to develop its structure while maintaining the varietal character of the Encruzado grape.


Following fermentation, the wine undergoes six months of maturation in French oak barrels. This ageing stage allows gradual integration between the wine and the wood, contributing to greater structural depth and refinement before the final preparation for bottling.

Selection of Oenologists is an innovative concept in the wine area. The experience of several oenologists, viticulturists and consultants in the area meets at Parras - Selection of Oenologists in order to respond to the demanding and volatile demands of the market. The vast team travels every year through the various wine regions of Portugal in order to select the best grape varieties and the best grapes from each region. In the laboratory, the oenology team works in favour of superior nectars with profiles suited to current consumers. The result is distinctive and has been the subject of the best reviews. The Parras brands have reached important international markets and have won awards in renowned international competitions.

You're Overpaying for French Wine Because You Don't Know About Portugal

Here's what other wine producing countries don't want you to know:

Portugal makes wines just as good, sometimes better, for half the price. Everyone’s been trained to worship the same names: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Napa, Tuscany. But here’s the uncomfortable truth those wine giants don’t want you to hear:

Portugal is making wines just as exceptional, and often better, for a fraction of the price.

And no, this isn’t a budget alternative. It’s a massive blind spot in the wine world. While the rest of the planet keeps pumping out the same 12 internationally famous grape varieties - Cabernet, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay - Portugal has been doing something radically different.

They’ve quietly preserved more than 250 indigenous grapes you can’t find anywhere else on Earth.

Not copies. Not variations. Completely unique varieties with flavours, aromas, and textures you’ve literally never tasted before.

That £80 Cabernet you just splurged on? Portugal has wines made from grapes you’ve never even heard of… and they’ll absolutely stun you, for £20–£30.

Imagine discovering flavours that feel familiar and completely new.

Imagine drinking wine that feels like a secret... because hardly anyone else knows about it yet.

Still Drinking the Same 5 Grapes? You’re Missing the Magic of Wine

Here's what other wine producing countries don't want you to know:

Portugal makes wines just as good, sometimes better, for half the price. Everyone’s been trained to worship the same names: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Napa, Tuscany. But here’s the uncomfortable truth those wine giants don’t want you to hear:

Cabernet. Merlot. Pinot Noir. Chardonnay. Sauvignon Blanc.

Congratulations, you drink wine like everyone else. Meanwhile, Portugal has 250+ indigenous grape varieties that literally don't grow anywhere else on Earth. Grapes with actual terroir.

Actual uniqueness. Actual stories that aren't just marketing.

And here's the part that'll piss off your wine snob friends: they're better quality for the price than almost anything coming out of Napa.

Port is what Portugal is famous for. But if that's all you know, you're missing the entire country.

Imagine drinking wine that feels like a secret... because hardly anyone else knows about it yet.
