Sale price€25,99

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout


This captivating orange wine made from a blend of Moscatel de Setúbal and Moscatel Roxo grapes.

The winemaking journey of APRT3 is defined by their innovative "winemaking on wheels" approach. Rather than relying on a permanent vineyard, they travel throughout Portugal, sourcing high-quality grapes from distinct regions known for their classic varieties. This unique method allows them to create limited-edition wines that showcase the diversity of Portugal's terroirs.

The 2023 Ambar is a testament to APRT3's commitment to natural winemaking and minimal intervention. The wine is fermented with native yeasts and undergoes a period of skin contact, resulting in its distinctive orange hue and complex flavor profile. The aromas and flavors are described as a whimsical, fresh, and funky exploration of the Moscatel grape varieties.

APRT3's Ambar is a true representation of their punk-rock aesthetic and their dedication to crafting extraordinary wines. Each vintage is a unique canvas, with the 2023 edition being a highly anticipated addition to their portfolio of limited-edition, exclusive wines.

APRT3

Founded in Lisbon, Portugal, in 2018, APRT3 Wines (first known as Vinhos Aparte) is the brainchild of three individuals with diverse backgrounds: Diogo, a sommelier; Guilherme, a farmer; and Luís, a nurse. Dissatisfied with the homogeneity of the commercial wine market, they envisioned creating unique, natural wines using a scientific approach.

Their journey began in a borrowed garage equipped with a single barrel and rudimentary steel tanks. Here, they produced their first 3,000 bottles, laying the groundwork for their innovative concept – "winemaking on wheels."

APRT3 embraced the lack of a permanent vineyard as an opportunity. They traveled throughout Portugal, sourcing high-quality grapes from distinct regions known for their classic varieties. In 2019, they rented a small winery in Torres Vedras, allowing them to expand production to 5,000 bottles.

Despite their initial success, the founders maintained their day jobs, ensuring the winery's sustainable growth. This dedication to responsible practices extended to their winemaking philosophy, emphasizing natural methods and minimal intervention.

2021 marked a turning point for APRT3. Recognizing the need for greater control over the winemaking process, they acquired an abandoned winery in Setúbal. This location offered several advantages: proximity to Lisbon, a historical connection to their first sourced grapes, and the potential for creating an open-space facility conducive to small-scale, diverse production.

The initial phase focused on renovations, carefully preserving artifacts of historical value. Crowdfunding initiatives provided crucial financial support, allowing them to prepare the cellar for the 2022 harvest and establish a stronger brand identity.
