O Produtor, tasting note published in March 15th 2024

Duckman wines express the true character of Bairrada's indigenous varieties and its exceptional maritime influence. There are no indications of the region on the labels, done intentionally to demonstrate an acute sense of place and varietal typicity through minimal intervention at the winery. Only indigenous varieties can be Bairrada wine, not imports that wish to claim it as their own identity. Luis and Maria work in two main vineyards, Amoreira da Gândara, composed mainly of sandy soils, and Óis do Bairro, composed mainly of clay soils.

João Pato AKA Duckman

With an average age of 20 years, the vines are planted on 0.15 hectares of sandy soils called Amoreira da Gândara. The vines are sustainably farmed and the grapes are harvested in early September, peeled and spend a short time on skins before being allowed to partially spontaneously ferment in French oak and stainless steel (temperature controlled), which lasts for three weeks. The wine does not spend time on lees and is aged in French oak for six months. It is not fined or filtered.

Allergens information

Contains sulphites.

João Pato

The original João Pato lived from 1920 to 1984 and was reborn in 2018 in the spirit of Duckman. The Duckman spirit is not easy to define, it is a mixture of heritage from our ancestors with an inter-generational spirit of looking at the world in general and wine in particular. Furthermore it has been defined as an ART-isanal Wine Project that aims to raise questions about the customs and trends associated with the world… and also that of wine.
Duckman wants to support artists from the region, in their most diverse areas, from photography, music, writing… in short, anything that can be considered art and to use its wines as a vehicle for bringing the art of the region to the farthest corners of the world… Duckman also does not forget its people, its neighbours and friends who help us to have a more meaningful life, producing manual brochures, sculptures in fabric, etc…
Duckman is all of us who embrace this spirit of building a better world together!
The wines presented here result from the exclusive use of grapes produced by us from native grape varieties (Bairrada region), from small editions and reveal unexpected sensations that arouse questions! We minimize the use of sulphur, the wines are not always filtered and the wines are vegan (we don’t use any product of animal origin during the entire production process).
