    Winemaker Notes

    This wine is made with Arinto grapes from two small vineyards. A lowland vineyard in a very cool area with deep clay-limestone soils and another located on a more chalky and sunny hillside. It is a raw and uncompromising approach to the unique “terroir” of this region that revisits artisan winemaking techniques, naked of technology and in search of the purest expression of the “Arinto de Bucelas”.

    It was a very dry year marked by an early harvest. The summer was quite long, dry and warm, however with some cool nights which allowed rippening to go on without interruptions and consequently the harvest was quite early. These grapes were harvested manually in early September and the result is a wine full of freshness and minerality.

    Mira do O, Portugal

    The Druids were wise men and philosophers of Celtic civilizations, whose duties extended to justice, medicine, history and poetry. Their main connection was with the earth and the planets and their quest for spiritual equilibrium through the balance of nature. so does the viticulturist and winemaker inconstant search for balance between the soil, the climate and the vines so they can attain the perfect wine, the perfect sensory balance.

    Mira do O wines are just that, a pursuit for balance with the utmost respect for nature. This is a personal project, driven by passion for wines filled with freshness, elegance and aging potential. The Dao is a region that is famous for providing these qualities. Rich in history, with its high altitude vineyards and granite soils, its cool climate and its indigenous varieties.

    These are handcrafted wines made from small and very special vineyards located on a plateau of 500 meters of altitude, on the right bank of the river Dao. Winemaking takes place in a small cellar of stone, established in the middle of the vineyards. It is minimum intervention winemaking where the main goal is the expression of the grapes and the region.
