Folias de Baco

High above the famous terraces of the Douro, on a wind-scoured plateau near Alijo, Tiago Sampaio is rewriting what the region's wines can taste like. Under the Uivo label he makes bright, energetic natural wines from old field blends, a long way from the area's powerful ports.

Sampaio founded Folias de Baco, which translates as the follies of Bacchus, in 2007, working from his family's estate vineyards. His connection to the land runs deeper still: he grew up exploring his grandfather's farms and vineyards before studying agriculture in Portugal and completing a PhD in viticulture and enology in Oregon. The wines are released under the Uivo brand.

More on how they farm and work in the cellar in our Folias de Baco producer profile.
