Uivo Renegado Vinho Tinto 22

750 ml
$21
  • Organic
In this unique field blend of more than 25 traditional varieties (whites and reds mixed approximately 50% reds to whites), Tiago is essentially bridging the traditions of his homeland with learned modern aesthetics. Aged for 6 months in used French oak and steel tanks, the result is a refreshing, complex, unforgettable, chillable light red. Bright and light red color, with intense aromas full of fruit and herbal notes, and a slight toast note. Smooth and mouthwatering acidity, this wine incites you to drink more, without any weight of the alcohol. Enjoy on its own or with grilled meat and fish.

Folias de Baco

Tiago Sampaio is the innovative young winemaker of Folias de Baco, a project started in 2007 that one could say was spearheaded in his childhood piggybacking on his grandfather through the farms and vineyards, always curious and plucky, willing to experiment at every step of the way. Located in Portugal's Alto Douro, in the sub-region of Cima-Corgo—where the land is tough and challenging—you will find Sampaio's vines clinging to the slopes of schist and granite at 500-700m altitude.
