The wine's name might give a clue to the country of origin an Iberian takeon Johnny English. With vineyards and long term agreements with local producers contributing to a total of 600 hectares, João has shaken up Portugual's wine exporting business by making top quality wines from local and indigenous grape varieties that wine savvy drinkers want to buy. He put his roots down in this dry, hot, eastern region of Portugal back in the early 1980s and as a wine consultant and winemaker has never looked back. Red Leg, named after the local partridge, Branco is cool fermented in stainless steel vats. Made from Arinto, Antao Vaz and Viogner, this has limes and wet stone minerality on the nose with fresh, zesty grapefruit on the palate.
