Wow! I met Luis Pato, completely by chance, two weeks ago at "A Barca"
in Aveiro. I was sitting there eating with a colleague, and heard
people talking about wine next to me. Have not tasted it yet, but
sounds very interesting, he claims he works mostly with Baga. I
promised I would go to visit him soon. His daughter instead vinifies
wines separately from him, and seems more oriented towards things like
syrah...
