Portugal's Setúbal Peninsula produces both dry table wines and the historic fortified Moscatel de Setúbal, one of the world's great dessert wines. Sandy soils and Atlantic influence create distinctive conditions south of Lisbon. The region is best known for its luscious, amber-hued Moscatel with extraordinary aging potential.
