What The Fellas Say

Each sip of this subtle, complex red tells the story of its alchemical conjuring out of the shale rock landscape by tough winters, merciless sun, generational know-how and state-of-the-art oenology. A real gem.

What The Sommelier Says

Delicate, grain-flecked ruby colours shine brightly in the glass. The nose teases and tantalizes with a blend of red berries, cherry, blackberry, gooseberry and plum, scented with mint, fennel, thyme, black pepper and cinnamon, all spilling over into the mouth for a well-balanced, long finish.

Pairs well with…

…game or fowl, like roast pheasant, rabbit, or even venison, or a melanzane al parmigiana

About The Winemakers

Casa do JOA is rooted in the rugged landscape of Alto Trás-os-Montes, where the harsh winters and scorching sun force the land to yield its best to the vines.

Situated in Aldeia da Parada, the heart and soul of Casa do JOA, this village embodies the timeless connection between the land and its people, producing the only wine in the region. The winery is the realization of Jorge Ortega Afonso’s dream to return to his roots and transform an old barn into a state-of-the-art winery. Casa do JOA represents more than just winemaking—it is a labor of love that merges past and future, bringing together traditional methods with cutting-edge techniques. Here, the passion for wine is deeply intertwined with the sense of home and belonging.
