Lucas Lopes Amaral
Lucas Lopes Amaral produces wines from the Açores, Portugal's volcanic island region. The winery works with indigenous Portuguese varieties suited to the Atlantic climate: Verdelho, Arinto dos Açores, and Fernão Pires. Esboçopódio Verdelho, the winery's flagship expression of this traditional grape, has been assessed by Wine Advocate. The Pólvora Volcánica Edição Especial Arinto dos Açores showcases the mineral character of the volcanic terroir through a native variety. Cadmarvor Fernão Pires rounds out the portfolio, each wine reflecting the particular conditions of island viticulture. The winery's focus on regional grapes and volcanic expression positions it within the Açores' emerging fine wine landscape.
