At the beginning of the 19th Century, one of the most interesting pages of Portuguese Wine was born, a wine was born that would become an icon, a target of covetousness, but which was always kept, willingly, out of the spotlight. Its creator, Alexandre de Almeida, imported the concept of combining luxury hotels with a wine cellar and its own wine. Thus, the great Buçaco Wines were born. If we look back, since its first harvests, we realize the importance of this icon, which was served to kings, queens, heads of state, as evidenced by the menus, proudly kept at the Hotel Palace Bussaco. Buçaco wines were objects of worship, limited to very closed circles, the elite. Buçaco wines were, and still are, always vinified in the same way, with the same precepts as in the past. Its "mixture", from the Dão and Bairrada regions, thus guaranteed a brilliant wine, which evolved nobly in the bottle and its fantastic and noble labels, which remain to this day, the symbol of its pedigree, its strain. Drinking a Buçaco is like traveling back in time, drinking a glorious wine, created by Alexandre Almeida, a visionary. This is an opportunity that everyone who appreciates wine should have, even if just once in a lifetime.
