Handcrafted in Portugal, these exclusive ceramic bowls, known as "malgas" or "tigelas," are a direct link to the traditional wine culture of the Vinho Verde region. Designed explicitly for enjoying robust red wines like Vinhao, these durable bowls have been a staple in Portuguese taverns and homes for generations.
Each malga is a tribute to Portuguese craftsmanship. It features a unique, rustic design with our logo and name meticulously fired onto the ceramic. The firing process ensures a permanent and food-safe finish, making each piece a lasting memento of quality and tradition. Each bowl is individually made and finished by skilled artisans in Portugal, and the fired-on logo guarantees a professional, fade-proof finish. They are perfect for enjoying or serving traditional Portuguese red wines in a unique bowl.
In northern Portugal's lush, green landscapes, the malga is more than just a drinking vessel—it's a symbol of shared experience and a deep connection to the land. The wide, shallow shape of the malga is ideal for drinking Vinhao, a "tinto" (red) wine from the Vinho Verde region. The design allows the wine to breathe and its rich, sometimes effervescent, character to be fully appreciated.
Bring this rich history and tradition to your home with these one-of-a-kind, authentic malgas.
