Explosivo was created to showcase a style of red wine that has been in high demand recently in the US market: chillable, uncomplicated red wine.

It features one of the region’s native grapes, Vinhão, made in a style that complements its liter-sized bottle: juicy and fresh (despite its dark, inky color) rather than tannic and intense, which is the typical style in the region.

Its light fizz appeals to Lambrusco drinkers (a well-recognized style of wine in the US), offering a much drier and more savory profile.

The name and label refer to its “explosive” mouthfeel.

Tasting notes: Fresh dark fruits (dark wild berries, plums), with an herbal and leafy touch. It has deep and dark flavors, followed by bright acidity and a slight fizz.

Climate:
Topographically, the region is “a vast amphitheater which, starting at the coast, gradually climbs in elevation towards the interior” (Amorim Girão, Portuguese geographer), exposing the entire area to the influence of the Atlantic Ocean, a phenomenon reinforced by the orientation of the valleys of the main rivers, which run east to west and facilitate penetration of the sea winds. This Atlantic influence, mostly granitic soils, mild climate and high rainfall, are reflected in the freshness, lightness and elegance of the wines of this region.

Granitic soils
