Description

From the high-altitude vineyards to the traditional foot-trodden lagares, the Respiro Lagar white wine is born. Total maceration and natural fermentation create an exotic aroma that intrigues, combined with notes of orange, peach, and smokiness. Aged for 9 months on lees in used barrels, it gains structure and volume, revealing itself as provocative and distinctive. As a natural wine, it may develop sediment.

The Cabeças do Reguengo estate was acquired in 2009 and offers a breathtaking view of the Alentejo landscapes, situated at 600 meters above sea level, near the source of the Caia River in the Serra de São Mamede. With a total area of 7.8 hectares, including 4.5 hectares of vineyards, everything on this estate is cultivated using organic farming methods. In addition, the property explores rural tourism and wine production in a modern winery.

João Afonso led this project that seeks to harmonize nature and humanity, following the "Slow Wine" concept to produce exceptional wines while respecting the natural evolution of the process.
