Fílipa Páto 2023 Post Quercus Baga

The magic that Fílipa wreaks on the recalcitrant Baga has to be tasted to be believed. Inspired by burgundy, she tames the beast and offers us a wine of breathtaking perfume and improbably silky texture. A wonderful juxtaposition to the more rugged style of her friend Mário Sérgio at Quinta das Bageiras. This was made in amphora, whose transpirational qualities are of huge benefit to the grapes.

Notes from the Producer: This is an easy drinking Baga wine with a fruity/spicy character, in fact it is a "throwback in time wine". As we have a lot of clay in the bottom of the valleys and in Roman times the wines where made in Clay pots, we wanted to reinstore this old tradition. The big advantage -for us- is that this way of vinification helped us a lot to understand better a lot of small vineyards as we can do a lot of mini vinifications (500 l clay pots). This way we can harvest every plot apart and vinify apart. After this you can really feel the difference in energy and character of each vineyard. Afterwards we blend together the wines we think are more suitable to form a nice and balanced Baga wine.
The micro-oxigination helps a lot to put the fruity character of Baga up and helps to soften down the tannins. This is a wine to drink a lot of!!!
