On this island, for more than 500 years, vines have been planted in the crevices of the volcanic rock, just a few meters from the sea. But it is even earlier, in 1465, the arrival of the Utras, misrepresentation of the name of Joss Hurtere, a Fleming who was Captain Donatory of Pico and Faial, decisive for the development of wine and vineyards on these islands. We were given the testimony of one of these vineyards still in the lineage of the Utras, a small plot in the Criação Velha that faces the sea, in the “1os Jeirões”, in a place where the greatest sun exposure and concentration is achieved.

Tasting Notes: Straw yellow citrine color, iodine aroma, salt, linden. In the mouth dense concentrated attack, acidity cuts in the middle and remains until the end of the tasting, salt and iodine, it is a “slap” of the sea.

A wine born in the sea, ready to pair with shellfish, yellowish fish (red mullet, sea roe, sea urchins) but with a density and concentration to work with white meats with burnt fat, such as a good suckling pig or even a pork belly .
