Duque de Palmella Reserva - Red Wine is a wine from the Setúbal Peninsula, produced by the historic José Maria da Fonseca. It is a classic red wine, associated with a region with a long winemaking tradition, where the climate and proximity to the Atlantic contribute to balanced wines full of character.
