Winemaker’s notes: “Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from were harvested manually, between 427 August and 3 of September, into 15 Kg crates. A first selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before de-steming, to ensure we only get the healthy grapes in. The grapes were then destemmed and maceration began. On the following day fermentation was on it’s way. The must remained with skins for 14 days and during that time all we do is a gentle delestage by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring”.

Crafted by João Tereso, a sound engineer who ventured into winemaking in 2017 to save his grandfather’s small plots of field-blend vines in Alcobaça, an hour north of Lisbon, Portugal.

Additional Information

Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from where harvested

manually, between the 6th and the 8th of September, into 15 Kg crates. THe vintage agve

us very well balanced grapes and harvest was on point to capture that balance. A first

selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before

processing, to ensure we only get the best grapes in. The grapes were then de-stemed

and maceration began. The wine remained with skins for 12 days and during that time all

we do is gentle punchdowns by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a

stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was

racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring.

It shows classical skin contact aromas on the nose, like tea leaves and lemongrass. In the

mouth you get some stone fruit and mineral under tones, flanked by just the right amount

of acidity, soft tannins and a firm finish.

Excellent results!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was in Thailand for almost 1 month and used this during the hot summer season and I never burned! It does go on very white but that’s a small concession knowing it is not a toxic sunscreen!

Lasts a long time
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunblock lasts a long time and you don’t need to reapply often. The one drawback is it takes a long time to rub in and sometimes stays white on your skin longer than you may want. But it’s amazing sunblock protection and all I use.

Great natural product
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this product for surfing and most of the natural sunscreens end up burning my eyes. This one does not run or rub off. After trying a bunch of other brands this has been my go to for the last couple of years.

Healthy Sunscreen
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Really great sunscreen without the harmful chemicals. Takes a bit longer to rub in since it sits on top of your skin vs. getting absorbed.

Too thick and hard to spread
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The lotion is so thick it takes forever for me to try to rub in and then your skin is left looking all white
