Ameixâmbar
IG Açores 2021
Two islands, Faial and Pico, two different volcanic soils for an absolutely unique wine.
A perfect blend of native grapes from the Capelinhos area on the island of Faial – the site of the volcanic ash eruption in 1957 – and from the “lajidos” in Criação Velha in Pico Island.
Two different areas, each with its own special “uniqueness” for a wine with an absolutely unique balance.
Fermented and aged in a refrigerated egg-shaped cement tank.

DO Pico Reserva 2021
Produced from native varieties and old vineyards, between 70 and 80 years old, in the “lajidos” in Criação Velha.

This is a numbered edition of 2792 bottles.
