Terrantez do Pico is a grape variety born on the island of Pico, where it finds unique conditions to develop its attributes. Special but sensitive, it requires extra attention in the vineyard so that the grapes can express their floral character, freshness, elegance and salinity.
This wine results from a careful selection of the best grapes from Cerca dos Frades in Santa Luzia on the North coast of the island of Pico. It presents an elegant aroma typical of the variety, with floral notes, unctuous in the mouth, fresh and markedly saline.

“Cerca dos Frades” is the designation for a parcel of land given by the population to the friars during its installation, at the behest of King D. Pedro III, in Santa Luzia on Pico Island. Faced with the request for an “area the size of an ox's skin”, the people willingly gave in until they realized the cleverness and cunning of the friars: they cut the ox's skin into very narrow strips, forming a long cord with which they surrounded the area they intended.
These vines grow on those same fences.
