The Wine
The owner of Aprhos is Vasco Croft, an architect, educator and devotee of Rudolf Steiner, who discovered the mysteries of wine in his mid-thirties through the intervention of a Brazilian Buddhist monk. From there it’s pretty much a straight line to starting your own winery and biodynamic vineyard, right?
The Winery
In person, Vasco is as vivid, energetic and unbuttoned as are his wines. Endlessly restless, he is currently engaged in an ambitious project to create a cultural center/restaurant and a food forest on his recently expanded estate.
Isolated for years from the happening areas of Europe, the Portuguese have been free to make wine their own way – from their coiled, snappy whites and mysterious, minerally reds to entirely singular sparkling wines like this one!
