Portuguese winemaker Joana Santiago set out to craft wines that embody the laid-back spirit of Portugal and Southern Europe. Named “Friã Friõ,” meaning “cool, cool,” the label captures that easygoing vibe—light, refreshing, and like a sunny escape in a glass. The wines are made from indigenous grapes sourced from top vineyard plots in the southern Sousa subregion of Vinho Verde, showcasing the region’s distinct terroir and the crisp, vibrant influence of the nearby Atlantic. Friã Friõ delivers a taste of Portugal’s sun-soaked lifestyle—where every sip feels like a perfect day.
Friã Friõ is a joyful expression of the Vinho Verde region of Portugal, a light-hearted wine with beautiful mineral character, fruitiness (delicate aromas of green apple and pink grapefruit with nuanced floral overtones), crispy acidity, and naturally lower alcohol (9.5%) white. This might become your favorite day drinking wine ever!
