O Produtor, tasting note published in November 13th 2021

The typical combination of Azorean blends. Sourced from traditional currais with very low yields, the grapes of these two varieties give rise to an exotic wine where the Atlantic influence and basalt soils intersect in an extraordinary way. Mineral aroma with citrus notes and some tropical hints. Fine and deep. Elegant and fresh on the palate, with a long and pleasant finish.

Tarelo

Each bottle of Tarelo tells a story of tradition, dedication, and passion, conveyed through the unique flavors and aromas of Azorean wines; this unique terroir that makes Pico wines so special, where each piece of land is wrested from the basalt, the vineyard planted among the stones and protected from the fury of the sea by walls (currais) built manually, stone by stone.

Signed by winemaker Paulo Laureano and with limited production, the Tarelo wine – a word that in the Azores means Judgement – is ideal for terroir wine enthusiasts.

Vinification: After harvesting, the grapes underwent a temperature reduction in a cold chamber to reduce the risk of oxidation and keep the aromatic component intact. The must obtained was clarified by static decantation at low temperature, and fermentation took place in stainless steel vats at 15ºC for 15 days. Maturation sur lie for 4 months, followed by 8 months of aging in the vat before bottling.

Delicious when paired with limpets, oysters, slipper lobsters, goose barnacles, or barnacles.

Curral de Atlantis

Emerging on the Portuguese wine scene, Tarelo is a bold and sophisticated wine brand that embodies a fusion of passion, integrity, and rigor.

The word “Tarelo,” derived from the Azorean expression “não tens tarelo,” commonly used to indicate a lack of judgment or common sense, has been reinterpreted by this rising brand. Tarelo chooses to retell this story, elevating the expression to a new level and transforming it into a symbol of sophistication and quality.

Tarelo’s philosophy is simple yet powerful: “No stupid people beyond this point.” This motto is the key to a world full of unique and sensory experiences. Inspired by the purity of the Atlantic Ocean and the intense sunlight, Tarelo invites you on a journey that transcends mere wine tasting.

For Tarelo, wine is not just a beverage but a promise of excellence, a reflection of the terroir where it is cultivated, and is meant to be enjoyed by those who understand and appreciate the art of winemaking.

Are you ready to enter a realm where every moment is a work of art in itself? Tarelo awaits you to share this extraordinary journey.
