FILIPA PATO & WILLIAM WOUTERS, BAIRRADA

Their goal is to make ‘authentic wines without make-up’. After working on three continents Filipa Pato set up her own winery in Bairrada in 2001, right from the start choosing separate path from her famous father. Instead of taking over the family vineyards, she preferred to look for abandoned and neglected plots of old vines of Baga and made it her mission to bring them back to life.

Over the years she has added further vineyards and has restored a 19th century winery in the village of Óis do Bairro, to house a cellar for casks, amphorae, and bottles. As of 2020 vintage Filipa’s wines are cerified biodynamic – a result of many years of commitment to work with nature and attentive work in the vineyards.

Today Filipa works together with her husband Willam Wouters - former restaurateur, chef, and sommelier. They share passion for the terroir of Bairrada and the worls of fine wine.

TIAGO TELES
TIAGO TELES & COZS DA CRUZ E TELES, LISBOA (SERRA DE MONTEJUNTO), BAIRRADA, VINHO VERDE

For Tiago Teles wine was always so much more than mere result of a specific soil type, altitude, or grape variety… Rather he saw it as part of a wider socio-cultural context. Although communication engineer by trade, traveling, drinking wine, and writing about it became Tiago’s true vocation. In his journey through remote parts of Portugal, what interested him was not only the places, but also a human interaction with each other and its creative potential. Perhaps it is this interest in people that resulted in many collaborations in various parts of the country, in the years which followed. In 2012 Tiago embarked on the winemaking path, starting in his native Bairrada, shortly after adding to it wines made further north in Minho. In 2015 he began a lasting collaboration with his friend António Marques da Cruz in Serra da Montejunto, a hilly oasis with Atlantic climate to the north of Lisbon. From this project we bring two wines: PoP COZs. The enigmatic red Raiz is “a free, wondering wine” – every vintage a result of different human and vinous encounters. In 2020 it is made with Syrah and Castelão sourced from Quinta da Murta in Lisbon.

HRDDE DE LIBOA
HEREDADE DE LISBOA, ALENTEJO

Heredade de Lisboa is located in Vidigueira, the Baixo Alentejo sub – region. The proximity of Serra do Mendro north of Vidigueira, creates a natural barrier which favours the retention of fresh winds from the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in grater rainfall and laregr thermal amplitudes. This, combined with clay-schistous soils creates ideal conditions for balance and freshenss in resulting wines. Acquired in 2011 by the Cardoso family, the 100 hectres Estate is now experiencing a revival with a lot of work carried out in the vineyards. While retaing some of the international varieties, the move is towards indigenous Portuguese grapes which are well adapted to the local environment. We have found the entry range of the Conves wines exceptionally good, given their modest price point.

MÁRCIO LOPES

MÁRCIO LOPES, VINHO VERDE

Márcio Lopes started his winery in 2005, working alongside one of the Portugal’s most respected winemakers – Anselmo Medes in Vinho Verde. In the years that followed, he travelled to Australia (Rutherglen in Victoria and Tasmania), gaining a wide range of experience. He returned to Portugal in 2010 to start his personal project in Monção e Melgaço – an area known for the pink granite soil and Alvarinho dominated whites, which are
a “clear cut above” the usual ones coming from the vast DOP of Vinho Verde. With the grapes he purchases from several small growers and those coming from his own 5 hectares of vineyards, Márcio is making honest, terroir driven wines. 2017 marks the first vintage of his single varietal Loureiro, which has been vinified with native yeast, in stainless steel tanks and kept on fine lees for 5 months prior to bottling.

CASA DA PASSARELLA
CASA DA PASSARELLA, DÂO (SERRA DA ESTRELA)

When passing through the gates of Casa da Passarella one gets the impression that time stopped here at least a century ago. This historic estate was created in 1892 by the Portuguese entrepreneur, Amand d’Oliveira. He built a colonial style mansion and planted 200 hectares of vines, recognising the potential of the Dao region, long before it was officially demarcated. Unfortunately, in the decades that followed, the cooperative based system imposed by government contributed to the decay of the estate.
The restoration and rejuvenation project only started here in 2007, when the property was bought by Ricardo Cabral, who invested in returning the house and the winery to its former glory. The vineyards of Casa da Passarella are planted on granitic – sandy soils, between 400-600 metres above sea level. Steady breeze and significant difference between, day and night temperatures,  enable much longer “hanging time” for the grapes, which produce fresh and vibrant wine with plenty of natural acidity and supple, yet firm tannins in the case of reds.

ANTONIO MADEIRA
VIGNERON.png

ANTONIO MADEIRA, DÃO (SERRA DA ESTRELA)

Antonio Madeira was born and lived most of his life in Paris, but his family roots are in Serra da Estrela – the historic Dão region. It took some time, but Dão kept calling and eventually pulled him back and away from the busy city life... While in France Antonio fell in love with wine by tasting natural wines from Jura and Burgundy and he quickly realised that the old vines of Dão are a hidden gem, only waiting to be re – discovered. In 2011 he made his first vintage from a 50 year old vineyard belonging to a family friend and from then on, begun his quest for the old plots, planted with rare local varieties like: Tinta Pinheira, Negro Mouro, Tinta Amarela and Baga. With some care, those native gnarly vines (many of them on their own rootstocks!) are yielding incredible results! Antonio works in minimalistic, organic way, with micro parcels in six different villages and the wines are always a filed blend (echoing the Dão of the past), wild fermented and with minimal sulphur at bottling. We have met with Antonio several times in Portugal and always loved the purity and the ample energy of his wines. They resonate with us, and we have no doubt he is one of the most exciting winemakers in the region!
