The vineyards of the Portuguese wine region of Terras do Sado are mainly located on the famous Setúbal peninsula, just below Lisbon. This is where one of the most beautiful sweet wines in the world comes from: the Moscatel de Setúbal. But especially the dry red and white wines from Terras do Sado are currently on the rise.
