Winemaker’s notes: “Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from were harvested manually, between 427 August and 3 of September, into 15 Kg crates. A first selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before de-steming, to ensure we only get the healthy grapes in. The grapes were then destemmed and maceration began. On the following day fermentation was on it’s way. The must remained with skins for 14 days and during that time all we do is a gentle delestage by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring”.

Crafted by João Tereso, a sound engineer who ventured into winemaking in 2017 to save his grandfather’s small plots of field-blend vines in Alcobaça, an hour north of Lisbon, Portugal.

Additional Information

Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from where harvested

manually, between the 6th and the 8th of September, into 15 Kg crates. THe vintage agve

us very well balanced grapes and harvest was on point to capture that balance. A first

selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before

processing, to ensure we only get the best grapes in. The grapes were then de-stemed

and maceration began. The wine remained with skins for 12 days and during that time all

we do is gentle punchdowns by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a

stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was

racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring.

It shows classical skin contact aromas on the nose, like tea leaves and lemongrass. In the

mouth you get some stone fruit and mineral under tones, flanked by just the right amount

of acidity, soft tannins and a firm finish.

Disappointed
Color: S6-muti-color
These were great for about 20 minutes then they stopped squeaking...we have 2 left that I have saved but the other 4 do not squeak anymore...disappointed as my dog loves to squeak things...would not buy these again...My dog is only an 8lb dog too...but he can still play with the balls without the squeak...

Great Value for a ball my dog loves!
Color: S6-muti-color
I wish these ball were in the subscription program! My dog gets sooo excited by the new ball, but her interest in things lasts for a few days. She kills the squeak within 11minutes, but the squeaker stays in place rather than becoming a chocking or swallow hazard, and she still loves to chew it. Next, we must throw the ball approximately 723 times the first day, possibly 496 times on day 2, and just 3- 4 on day 3, at which point she will chase the ball before hollering "it's over here if you need it," while she checks on the chipmunk den. We currently have 17 of these balls in our yard (because we have given several leftovers to a less discriminating doodle next door). These balls hold up really well, get her extremely active for the first couple of days, and are a much cheaper than doggie daycare (after an active morning with a new ball, she is happy to chew on it and sleep much of the day). I always have these on hand!

Pieces chewed off
Color: white & green
My Aussiedoodle loves it. I throw it down the hallway, it bounces crazy, and he chases it. The only complaint is that he can't chew much of the ball part. So now I have to have it put away and brought out for special playtime.

Colorful, Sturdy & Great Value
Color: Large Set of 4
Purchased for our two puppies when they were 2 months old and weighed about 14 pounds so theses balls were a little big for them to hold in their mouths but that didn't stop them from trying. While they did like these balls they much preferred softer soccer balls, the later of which did not hold up well at all. I had hoped they would play with these balls more when they were older but that hasn't happened 5 months later. I guess it's no fun if you can't tear the toy apart. Colors are very bright and they do enjoy chasing after them as long as I am the one rolling them across the room for them. Maybe when they progress to batting things with their paws they will start to do this for themselves.
