What The Fellas Say

Like being spritzed with orange peel, pomegranate and fresh cut flowers while doing a bit of gardening. Fresh, bright, and deliciously citric and floral, tinted with the background depth of grape must and dusty adegas. This is a must have with fresh grilled fish on a hot summer’s day. Serve blindingly cold so it opens up in your mouth like a clam being tickled by cool ocean currents.

What The Sommelier Says

Opaline intense yellow color. This wine shows intense aroma concentration, full of rose petals, lychees and tangerine notes. The medium-bodied palate shows some tannin tension and medium acidity, leading to a prolonged finish.

Pairs well with…

Perfect for adventurous palates and food pairings that range from charcuterie to Middle Eastern spices.

About The Winemakers

Douro-born winemaker Tiago Sampaio combines generations of family tradition with cutting-edge winemaking. After earning his PhD in Viticulture and Enology in Oregon, he returned to the Douro Valley to create Folias de Baco, crafting organic and natural wines from old family vineyards. With a bold, experimental spirit, Tiago bridges the region’s rich heritage with modern techniques, producing vibrant, authentic wines that capture the soul of Portugal.

About The Winemakers

Region: Douro

The wines of the Douro Valley are known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential. The soil is predominantly schist, a type of metamorphic rock that retains heat and helps to ripen the grapes. The region’s unique terroir, combined with the use of indigenous grape varieties and traditional winemaking techniques, create wines that are rich, complex, and full of character.
