List of products by brand Cortes de Cima

When talking about the quality revolution in Portugal, the name of the Alentejo region immediately comes to mind. When better and better wines attracted the interest of the world public in the early 1990s, they all came from the hot south of Portugal. Hans Joergensen was present from the beginning: in 1988, the Danish native, with extensive experience in the management of tropical plantations, pressed his first wine in Cortes de Cima. He only planted his 105 hectares of vineyards near Vidigueira, which is traditionally a white wine region, with red varieties. It quickly rose: together with his Californian wife Carrie, he produces fruity, smooth wines that are among the best in Portugal. One of Syrah's best wines today was first bottled in 1998 and was likely named "Incognito" in reference to the grape variety not allowed under the DOC classification and "secretly" imported vines. The enterprising winemaker is also nonconformist in other respects: Since he trains the trellis vines according to the Australian Smart Dyson system, which also does not comply with cultivation regulations, he markets his wines as Vinho Regional Alentejano do Alentejo).
