{"product_id":"hugo-mendes-pitau-clarete-red-2024","title":"Hugo Mendes Pitau Clarete Red 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eHugo Mendes trained as a biomedical engineer, worked his first harvest in 2004, and spent more than a decade in cellars and consulting around Portugal before going out on his own in 2016, paying for that first bottling by pre-selling the wine on social media. He works from Alenquer, north of Lisbon, almost entirely with the region's native grapes, a rarity in Lisboa, and the aim is natural freshness, with no pushed alcohol and no heavy oak. Pitau is his clarete, the Portuguese term for a light, fruity red, made from red grapes alone. They get only a short maceration, ferment on indigenous yeasts, and are raised entirely in stainless steel. The 2024 is bright and youthful, with red cherry, wild strawberry, and citrus peel over a floral lift and a savory, herbal edge, held together by gentle tannins and a clean finish. Give it a light chill and keep it flowing all evening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GK Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52956207186218,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/0645\/5338\/files\/1000011447.jpg?v=1743804340","url":"https:\/\/purewinenyc.com\/products\/hugo-mendes-pitau-clarete-red-2024","provider":"Pure Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
