1 Bottle
Dão Region

DESCRIPTION
Osvaldo Amado, renowned Portuguese winemaker, with almost 40 harvests in history, millions of bottles produced, with thousands of awards awarded and many brands that need no introduction, such as Casa de Santar, Marquês de Marialva or Cabriz. He had already made all kinds of wines, except... his own! And they had to be special, unique, distinct. They had to be rare, or better yet, they had to be ‘Very Rare’. Studio wines, in limited editions, like jewels born from nature.
Thus was born the company Total Wines – Vinhos de Portugal and the brand Raríssimo By Osvaldo Amado, launched at the end of 2019. The objective was immediately defined: to produce special, distinct and complex wines... delicately designed, unique, perfect, rare, always accompanied by its creator!
"Maturing to enhance the good that nature offers us to achieve excellence has always fascinated me", says Osvaldo Amado.
