This highly complex white wine, which combines so many aromas, comes from a 120-year-old vineyard in the Douro Superior, on granite soil, 800 meters above sea level: on a very mineral base (flint and wet stone) there are juicy, fruity notes of dried apricot, pineapple and ripe citrus fruits. Lively, very rich and smooth, and at the same time light and fresh.
A “serious” wine that leaves a long aftertaste with light nuances of bitter citrus peel.

This wine fermented spontaneously and without temperature control in huge barrels (700 liters), where it was stored on the lees for 10 months. It is a so-called "field blend" of at least 15 native Portuguese grape varieties such as Folgazão, Dona Branca, Verdelho, Siria, Malvasia, Rabigato and many others.
It was bottled unfiltered and unstabilized and, like all Márcio Lopes wines, it is as natural as possible, because all Márcio wines have one thing in common: minimal intervention both in the vineyard and in the cellar.

This wine has a very intense citrus scent, fresh notes and a lot of minerality. Very harmonious in the mouth with a very long, persistent body and infinite freshness.

Serving suggestion: Red meat and spicier dishes. Ideal temperature: 12ºC.
Can be enjoyed immediately or over the next 10 to 20 years if stored in a cool, dry place protected from light.

The name of this wine “Permitido” (in English: permitted) comes from the fact that the grapes come from hills between 650 and 800 meters above sea level, where you can find silence and breathe pure air and where everyone is allowed to dream, live and feel.

Márcio Lopes: The Rising Star in Vinho Verde.

Márcio Lopes was born in Porto in 1983 and spent many summer holidays with his grandparents in the hinterland of Porto where they grew corn and wheat and also produced wine. At the age of 6, his grandmother put him in a lagar (traditional Portuguese granite basin used for winemaking) so that he could crush the grapes with his feet, as is still traditional today. This was the first of many, many wines that young Márcio has produced since then. The rest is history...

Marcio Lopes

A year before graduating in Agricultural Engineering in 2006, Márcio began working with the famous winemaker Anselmo Mendes in Melgaço. In 2008, he went to Australia, where he was responsible for two vintages in Rutherglen and Tasmania. In 2010, he started his own project, "Pequenos Rebentos" (Portuguese for "little sprouts") in the Minho region, home of Vinhos Verdes.
