Quinta do Ermizio Chin Chin Vinho Verde
A blend of Trajadura, Arinto & Loureiro, this Portuguese Vinho Verde is a collaboration between winery Quinta Do Ermizio and top London restaurant and magazine, Noble Rot. Local artist Jose Mendez provided the eye catching label. Gaining a bit of a cult following, this wine is dry, fruity, zesty, refreshing and really really easy drinking.
Pair with grilled or baked fish, salads and sunshine. Chin Chin!
Casal Figueira Adiado Tinto
Marta Soares is the pioneering wine maker at Casal Figueria, a project started by her late husband, Antonio. With 13 hectares of vineyards in Vermelha, just 80km north of Lisbon, they found centuries old vines of Vital and Castelão scattered in the slopes of the Serra de Montejunto. An artist herself, Marta combines art and wine in the vineyard and the labels. The local village’s tradition of making chalk drawings on people’s houses to celebrate Epiphany are the inspiration of many of the bottle labels.
Ultra low intervention expression of a once common variety. Castelao brings real crunch and zip of fresh berry fruit, with a slightly sour, red cherry acidity, wrapped in an earthy blanket. Drink with charcuterie and any pork dishes. It works great chilled as well!
Impeceval
A wonderful, fresh, fruit-focussed expression of Touriga Nacional from the highlands of the Dao. Made without oak influence to maintain purity, it’s juicy and fruity, with lovely, soft tannin to add a little grip and interest.
Raza Pet Nat Rose
Quinta Da Raza is perfectly located in the interior of the Minho region, benefitting from great sun exposure but gets some moderating influence from the Tamega River. Preserving traditional wine making techniques as well as promoting biodiversity and natural balance.
This is a refreshing rose fizz packed full of red berry fruits including strawberries and raspberries with a hint of hedgerow berries. The natural sediment makes the wine cloudy but that’s where all the flavour is!

A wonderful expression of this single variety. A refreshing slightly fizzy wine with lots of bright citrus fruit and floral aromatics. Bready lees notes give texture and weight, balanced by minerality. Natural sediment adds complexity but also makes the wine slightly cloudy.

This expression of Vinhão could not be more authentic! Packed with lots of black fruits, this is clean and fresh with a fantastic colour. Chill it down, drink on it’s own or with grilled (BBQ!) meats.
Saroto Branco
Arribas Wine Company was founded in 2017, in Bemposta, Mogadouro. They produce authentic wines, based on regional varieties, old vineyards and traditional techniques. They farm their vineyards as sustainably and respectfully as possible, and make wines in a minimalistic way.
This old-vine field blend contains Verdelho, Malvasia, Posto Branco, and Bastardo Branco, amongst others. Barrel fermented for 7 months and with very hands-off winemaking.
A rich and textural wine full of complexity and nuance. Natural acidity keeps the balance through the palate. A very gastronomic white and absolutely delicious.
