Hugo and Joana Campos of Ciclo Vinho have just 1.5 hectares of vines in Estremoz comprising no less than 10 different indigenous Portuguese grape varieties. With these they work with minimal intervention and by hand to craft fragrant, pure and vivacious natural wines in tiny quantities of just 600-2,000 bottles per cuvée.
The Ciclo Vinho Curtimenta (orange/skin contact) is 100% Moscatel crushed in whole-bunches and fermented with native yeasts on skins for a week in a traditional Portuguese lagar. A golden orange in colour with perfumed aromas of white flowers, honey and spice. Medium bodied on the palate with crisp acidity, light tannins and a creamy texture.
