This intense, grenadine-colored wine shows immense personality on the nose with aromas of acidic strawberry, earth, truffle, and a sea-iodine breeze, carrying those same complex elements onto a highly textured, medium-bodied palate defined by a distinct salinity and persistent acidity.

Origin · Açores · Pico

Pico is the largest and most iconic of the Azores' wine sub-regions, its UNESCO-listed vineyards planted in black basaltic "currais" that shield vines from Atlantic winds. This volcanic terroir produces intensely mineral, saline whites from Arinto dos Açores, Verdelho, and rare Terrantez do Pico.
