Description
The Bojo do Luar project came to life during a trip Savio made to the Vinho Verde region. Here he met Fernando Paiva, a biodynamic producer who has been experimenting with adding ground chestnut flowers to the grapes and must before fermentationbegan. Meanwhile hes halted using SO2 altogether since 2017.
Savio was undeterred and saw this as an opportunity: to use the traditionalautochthonous varietals of Northern Portugal,and apply his knowledge and experience of many decades working with French producers, mainly in Burgundy and Loire.With Antonios winemaking experience and openness to experiment using a non-intervention approach in the cellar, the Bojo do Luar wines started to take shape. The region has a mostly cool temperate climate throughout Spring, then very warm days, and cool nights until the harvest in September. Five red grape varietals and three whites were chosen for their natural high levels of tartaric acids and low PH.
