The producer Tiago Sampaio, established his label in 2007, having completed his PhD in Oregon. Tiago is an advocate for sustainable viticulture and the production of natural wines in the Douro. He cultivates vineyards between 500-700m – a mix of inherited old field blend vineyards and new plantings, where the boundary pusher has planted Alvarinho and Tinta Francisca.

Winemaking Tiago Sampaio’s pétillant naturel is a naturally sparkling wine made in the ‘ancestral’ method the wine is bottled during fermentation without any added yeasts or sugars.

Tasting notes It’s very pure, with delicate, sappy red fruits; raspberry and sour cherry with a little touch of fresh pepper. In the mouth it is refreshing and crisp, with a strong mineral character, almost salty.

Food pairing Enjoy by itself as an aperitif or pair with delicate fish such as sole or turbot.

Serving recommendations Serve cold 7-9°C
