The producer and winemaker is doing in Porto Santo what he did before in the Azores. On the outskirts of the major wine-producing regions, he sees more use in what he does.
It's a genuine sense of usefulness, he says. Making more, much more than just a wine. Not another wine, not another bottle too close, apart from its variations and particularities, to all the others in that region. António Maçanita feels alive, useful, and is breaking new ground. Recovering castes from history, saying no to the impossible.
