This unique wine from a small Cabeceiras de Basto producer in the Vinho Verde sub-region of Basto showcases the Alvarelhão grape. Following destemming, the must was infused with ground chestnut flower for a distinctive touch. The grapes macerated for five days and began fermentation in a stainless steel lagar before being transferred to large terracotta amphoras (talhas) to complete fermentation and malolactic fermentation. After ten weeks, the wine was bottled unfiltered, capturing its natural character.

Bojo do Luar

The Bojo do Luar project came to life during a trip Savio Soares made to vineyards near the Tamego River. Here he met Fernando Paiva, an innovative biodynamic wine producer making wines with minimal sulfites and adding ground chestnut flowers to tanks before fermentation. With Fernando's winemaking experience and openness to experiment using a non-intervention approach in the cellar, the Bojo do Luar wines quickly took shape. Not only were the results promising, but the wines easily became popular. The region has a mostly cool temperate climate throughout Spring, followed by hot days and cool nights until the September harvest. Each variety is vinified separately with minimal intervention.
