Magma

Learn More About This Wine

Magma is made exclusively from the grape Verdelho. The vineyards are planted in the so-called ‘Curraletas’ of Biscoitos, part of the landscape and heritage of Terceira Island. The vines grow on volcanic soils, surrounded by magma rocks that protect them from the strong winds of the Atlantic ocean, originating from a unique and special wine. 

Handpicked grapes go into 20 kg wicker baskets and are carried to the winery in a short period of time. Soft pressing of the whole de-stemmed grape. After the cold clarification a 20 day period of fermentation, 5-months ageing on fine lees with bâtonnage. 

Magma captures the volcanic essence of the Azores in every sip. With its vibrant acidity, tropical fruit flavours and lingering salty finish. The wine is a testament to the cooperative’s commitment to producing exceptional wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Azores. 

Only 3,900 bottles were produced.
