Post Quercus Baga Filipa Pato 2024 is a Bairrada red aged in 500-litre clay amphorae to emphasise the unadorned character of Baga. The 2024 vintage in Bairrada benefited from a temperate Atlantic influence that preserved the variety`s naturally high acidity and this bottling avoids oak influence to highlight the chalky soil texture. This results in a wine with vibrant red berry fruit and a distinct salinity and the amphora ageing provides a gentle oxygen exchange that softens the variety’s notoriously firm tannins.
