Aprt3 Ambar Orange 2023
25,90 €
“La Orangina”
Taking advantage of the super aromatic power of Moscatel and freshening it with Arinto, we get a super fragrant and perfumy wine with a cool and tingling mouth. This is pure joy flirting with the human senses.
Nose: Peach and passion fruit explosion, fragrant orange blossom with bits of grapefruit and orange leaf tea.
Mouth: Medium body, fresh and soft tannins, with a little astringency in the final taste, adding an extra layer of flavor.

The project was born when they discovered a wine barrel that was left “apart” in a wine cellar in Palmela, Setúbal. This barrel united 3 ISA master degree students in Viticulture and Enology, who became friends and desired to create wines focusing on science and environment sustainability. The wine was produced 6 months earlier during an internship, and when they found it, it was a trigger to start this journey.
Vinhos APRT3 merges art into wine science. In the winery they do handmade creations based on trial experimentations and recreations of old techniques, and through art, placed in a glass bottle canvas, they want to transform the way to communicate and experience the fermented grape juice.
It is by looking to wine as an aesthetic phenomenon, that they feel the need to connect with different artists each year, so they can express graphically their interpretations of the liquid creations.
They buy the grapes from viticultures all around Portugal, who respect the environment, and they handpicked the grapes, to select the best quality possible. In the winery, wines are treated with the upmost respect for the product and no industry tricks are used, only basic tools and their bare hands. This is why they belong to a small piece of vegan producers in the Portuguese scene.
They create naturally made wines, with science and passion.
