Portugal's Bairrada is the country's spiritual home for traditional-method sparkling wine, and Sidonio de Sousa is one of its most faithful keepers of the old ways. This Special Cuvee is a bottle-fermented sparkling white made from native Bairrada grapes, Bical, Arinto, and Maria Gomes, grown on chalky clay-limestone near the cool, damp Atlantic coast. It spends a minimum of two years on the lees, is fermented with wild yeasts, and gets zero dosage, so what you taste is the fruit and the place with nothing sugared over. The estate (officially Dulcinea dos Santos Ferreira) is family-run and famous locally for its ancient Baga vines. Bone-dry, saline, and a smart alternative when Champagne feels expected.

More about Sidonio de Sousa

Bairrada's secret weapon. Sidonio sits on some of the oldest Baga vines in the region and ages in 100-year-old Portuguese oak barriques. The reds are juicy and age-worthy; the sparkling wines (made the hard way) are elegant and citrusy. Unshowy quality that gets better every year.
