About this Wine

Vinification

The grapes for this wine were destemmed and crushed into the tank where it fermented, spontaneously without temperature control. In order to avoid too much extraction, it was pressed early and completed alcoholic and malolactic fermentation before being racked in used French oak barrels. It aged for 12 months before being blended and bottled without
bonding or filtration.

Author’s Note

With this project I intend to study and express the full potential of the native Portuguese grape varieties. I look for genuine and soulful wines that unequivocally express the origin and interpretation I make of it.

Producer

Hugo Mendes

After exchanging Biotechnology and Medical Research for wines, Hugo Mendes worked as a winemaker for other producers until he realized that he needed to build his project, his brand, to be able to make wines his way. I wanted to try different approaches to Portuguese grape varieties.

His vision in winemaking is clear: to respect the grapes, to allow them to express themselves without forcing them to be something they are not. It seeks to create wines that age well and uses as few oenological products as possible. For him, the wine must have soul and reflect the unique terroir of each region

Your project doesn't have vineyards of its own. Instead, he sources grapes from local producers who share his philosophy and produce with care and attention to quality. This approach allows you to positively influence grape growers and pay fairer prices as your business grows.

Currently, Hugo Mendes produces wines in Lisbon and Tejo, regions that he believes have enormous potential to be explored. Its goal is to show that it is possible to develop a successful business, with quality wines, without resorting to industrial agriculture.
