The first harvest was in 2017, under the supervision of winemaker Luís Leocádio, at Quinta dos Lagares, with whom they learned to improve some of the ideas they wanted to work with. This resulted in the first three Indications (by definition “What remains or remains of what has disappeared or passed or happened”), a red, a white and a rosé. Since then, only the two of them have been working, using traditional winemaking techniques and knowledge, with little intervention in their wines.
From 2018 onwards, they incorporated a new wine, Garganta Funda, which emerged from a pleasant conversation with Oficina Arara, also from Porto, authors of the labels and the entire graphic image of the wines, and with whom he has maintained a close relationship since the beginning.
