Their focus from the start has been on recovering and preserving the region's nearly-extinct \u003cem\u003emasseira\u003c\/em\u003e farming tradition — large rectangular pits dug into the coastal sand dunes by Benedictine monks in the 18th century, with vines planted along the sloped edges for wind protection and a rich polyculture of fruit, vegetables and grain grown in the sheltered centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWorking almost entirely with old vines grown in these masseira fields, Tubarão makes low-intervention wines — spontaneous fermentation, indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, low sulphite — built around the local Loureiro and Vinhão grapes, whose natural acidity and minerality thrive in the sandy, Atlantic-cooled soils. Beyond the wine itself, the project plays a genuine conservation role, financially supporting the small number of growers still farming this way and helping keep a centuries-old agricultural tradition from disappearing entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTubarão Red is a fresh, vibrant, and slightly fizzy red wine inspired by the traditional wines of Portugal’s Minho region. Crafted with a low-intervention approach using spontaneous fermentation, indigenous yeasts, and minimal sulphites, this is a pure and energetic expression of the region’s classic “vinho tinto minhoto” style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in bottle, creating its gentle natural spritz and giving it a lively, refreshing personality that makes it incredibly versatile and fun to drink. Light, juicy, and easy-going, it’s the kind of red that’s made for sharing with friends, casual meals, and warm afternoons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect bright red fruit flavours, soft texture, refreshing acidity, and a delicate fizz that lifts the wine beautifully. Best enjoyed lightly chilled — just like you would a white wine — to fully appreciate its freshness and drinkability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced as part of a sustainable wine project, Tubarão Red is also vegan and vegetarian friendly, unfiltered, and made with very low sulphite levels (average 4 mg\/dm³).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best served chilled at 8–10°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Artisan Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45014678044741,"sku":"TV24FT","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/8644\/4357\/files\/tubarnovinhosFeraTinto.png?v=1778817240"},{"product_id":"tubarao-vinhos-loureiro-frisante-branco-2024","title":"Tubarão Vinhos Loureiro Frisante Branco 2024","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"OutlineElement Ltr SCXW11761734 BCX0\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"33\" data-end=\"361\"\u003eTubarão Frisante Branco 2024 is a fresh and lightly sparkling white wine from Portugal’s Minho region, made from 100% Loureiro — one of the country’s most exciting and expressive white grape varieties.
