Adega Lucas Lopes Amaral
Island of Pico
Adega Lucas Lopes Amaral
It is hard to conceive of a property more suited to the desolate, arid island of Pico than this rustic cottage on the windy coast of Campo Raso, 12 km south of Madalena. Here we meet the youngest vigneron in the entire Azores Archipelago: Lucas. Just 21 years old, he is considered the present and future of Pico and his labels have already gained international recognition. His Adega bottles and produces wines that are very different from each other, as the grapes from which they are made, and the areas of the island where the vineyards are located, are all different. The overall production is around 13,000 units: a number which is both limited and variable because of the climatic adversities often befalling the island and affecting its crops.
