The distanced traveled here is measured vertically, curvilinear instead of a straight line forward. On the granite edge of the Távora River, just off the Duoro, GCS was introduced to a different kind of pioneer, Pedro Coelho; a man not intimidated by the change in elevations and less so by the efforts it takes to find his own way. His interpretation of pioneer we found to be compelling. Locked in a land of tradition, he is not looking so much to escape his place, as much as to free the wines from the long-held local trappings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"0\" id=\"p-rc_5d2b10daca73351a-28\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-21\"\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"0\" data-index-in-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-21\"\u003ePormenor \"A de Arinto\" 2021\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-21 citation-end-21\"\u003e is a high-altitude, minimal-intervention white wine from the Douro region of Portugal.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Produced by Pedro Coelho (with consulting from famed winemaker Luís Seabra), this vintage is defined by its searing acidity and electric minerality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"source-inline-chip-container ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\n\u003cbutton class=\"button ng-star-inserted\" aria-label=\"View source details for citation from Grand Wine Cellar.
