Tiago Teles

Tiago Teles arrived at winemaking by an unusually thoughtful route. He trained as a telecommunications engineer, spent years working in that field while tasting obsessively across Portugal, then turned to wine writing and eventually published a manifesto on natural wine and terroir. In 2012, he and his father planted a two-hectare plot in Bairrada, the region his family is from, and the first bottles followed from there. He has not looked back.

Tiago now works across three Portuguese appellations. In Bairrada, on clay-limestone and sandy soils, he produces his Gilda and Maria da Graca reds, built on Alfrocheiro, Castelao, and Tinta Barroca. In Lisboa, he collaborates on the COZ project with winemaker Antonio Marques da Cruz. In the Minho, at Arcos de Valdevez close to the Galician border, he produces Raiz from native Loureiro grapes, a macerated white of unusual tension and minerality.
