Characterful sparkling wine project in Serra Gaúcha with diverse range.
Erich Ventura makes his boutique production of wines in Serra Gaucha and in Serra do Sudeste in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. His exclusive selection includes a red blend, a Marselan and an Albariño.
Don Giovanni winery is a beautiful and historic building in the Pinto Bandeira sparkling wine region. The family winery focus on premium bubbles and fine wines, and they also make a delicious brandy.
A visit includes a tour through the winery which is an aspect they are very proud of, as one of the only biodynamic producers in Brazil. If you time it right, you’ll get a perfect sunset across the vineyards which is a divine combination with Don Giovanni‘s excellent sparkling wine. If you can’t tear yourself away, there is an intimate pousada adjoining the winery where you can feel like a Brazilian vigneron for the day.
The Motter family have been settled into the hillsides of Alto Feliz for five generations since arriving from Italy, however the Don Guerino winery (named after their great grandfather Guerino Motter) is a modern endeavour that embraces the ambitions of the young family – with oldest brother Michael at 30 running the administration, middle brother Bruno as Head Winemaker at 26 years old, and youngest brother Lucas, only 22, about to open his first restaurant on-site.
With 55 hectares planted on their red clay slopes surrounded by sub-tropical forest, the majority of their 400,000 litre production comes from the estate. The wines are youthful, juicy and fruit-forward, showing the winemaker’s maturity in keeping with modern simplicity and a fresh style which feels symbiotic with Brazil’s terrain.
