Astronauta, “Blanc de Noirs” Baga Bruto

Aníbal Coutinho’s Astronauta Wines is a pioneering project that combines his love for travel with his expertise in winemaking. The concept involves producing wines in different countries, each crafted with a deep understanding of the local wine culture and grape varieties. Coutinho started the project in Portugal and South Africa, creating wines that showcase the most emblematic grapes of these regions—Touriga Nacional and Arinto from Portugal, and Chenin Blanc and Pinotage from South Africa. The project was first presented at the ProWein 2011 trade fair in Germany.
