Hugo Mendes Tejo Tinto

Descrição

Born and raised in the Ribeira de Santarém, Hugo Mendes studied biotechnological engineering, but his passion for wine prevailed, and since the 2006 harvest he has devoted himself entirely to enology. A lover of communicating the art to consumers, he is a regular presence on social media. Since 2008 he has run a blog dedicated to demystifying enology for wine lovers. He became a producer in his own name in the 2016 harvest, having carried out Portugal’s first crowdfunding campaign to finance a wine. (illustrative image)
