1st EDITION – 2018
Santiago na Ânfora do Rocim is a monovarietal Alvarinho wine aged in amphora and produced by Quinta de Santiago in the Sub-Region Monção and Melgaço — Vinho Verde D.O.C., in partnership with the producer Rocim.
“A wine born from the sharing of knowledge. From Pedro (Rocim), the whole amphora experience, from Joana (Quinta de Santiago), the Alvarinho grape variety and its territory. From both, the learning of a new path to one of the most noble Portuguese grape varieties.”
For the concept, we were inspired by the amphora manufacture. The materials used in the decoration of the bottle were placed manually, keeping the handmade spirit and originality of each bottle.
