Winemaker: Maria Pato
Rose gold with active fine white bouncing bubbles. Sniff and there’s a crumb of a yeasty roll, lemon along with orange zest…citrus blend, raspberry, young strawberries, red & green delicious apples, watermelon rind, a faint hint of Pop Rocks, white pepper, and a kind of cideresque tingle. All of it is there in the swig. It really has a cider feel in a very very very good way, and all of my beer buddies (especially Joe) pick it up. As time passes ripe strawberries and roses (or old school pink jelly beans) emerge. Just crisp, dry and so happy.
Pairs with Cheez-Its: smoooooth
As some of you know, I’m a huge fangirl of the whole Pato family and how they celebrate Bairrada & their grapes (in particular Baga). In their own words, “Duckman is all of us who embrace this spirit of building a better world together!” They also put their support behind artists from their region and their wines shared with the world help shine a light on these creators of all forms…“photo, music, writing…everything that can be considered as art”. So join in with their flock, because Duckman “does not forget his people, neighbors, and friends who help us to have a more meaningful life”. “We are born human. We were born wild. We’re looking for a tribe. We chase dreams.” So be a duck since, “We are all Duckman”.
