The name ‘VCL Rubrica’ underlines Venâncio da Costa Lima’s track record in producing quality wines and muscatel dating back to 1914. “With an image that highlights the founder’s photograph and signature, it encompasses a wide range of wines and muscatels designed especially for the HORECA market – catering and wine cellars”, informs the producer.
In addition to the Moscatel de Setúbal and Moscatel Roxo, it includes regional white, rosé and red wines and DOC reserve specially created to adapt to every moment of the meal for wine lovers in quality catering. The brand ‘Venâncio da Costa Lima – Rubrica’ is the result of a partnership between the producer of Setúbal Peninsula and the distributor ‘Wine Concept’.
Venâncio da Costa Lima is one of the oldest wineries in the Palmela region, beginning its activity in 1914. Still a family business, this winery is already in its fourth generation. As a producer of Table Wines, Certified Wines and Setúbal Moscatel, this company maintains its goal: to produce wines that are current and modern, but always display the profile and characteristics of a wine from this region. It was recognized as a producer of the ‘Best Muscat in the World’ in the contest ‘Muscats du Monde 2011’.
