Corridor footprint

nif.pt lists Caves Transmontanas, Lda (NIF 502303093) in Alijó. eInforma gives its seat as Rua de São Domingos, 22, 5070-092 Alijó, classifies its activity as sparkling-wine production (CAE 11022) and names dourovertice.pt as its website. That site presents Caves Transmontanas as the house behind Vértice, a Douro sparkling wine made by the traditional (champenoise) method and first released in 1988 from high-altitude Douro vineyards.

Vinmonopolet’s product catalogue lists two Vértice wines with Caves Transmontanas as producer, both in the order range (Bestillingsutvalget) and imported by Magma Wines AS: Vértice Gouveio Bruto 2019 (article 17498901, 75 cl, NOK 469.90, 100% Gouveio) and Vértice Cuvée Bruto (article 7436901, 75 cl, NOK 289.90).

Why this matters

Vinmonopolet is Norway’s retail alcohol monopoly, so a catalogue listing is the route by which a Portuguese producer reaches Norwegian consumers. Portuguese sparkling wine is a small category on the Norwegian shelf.
