More than selecting wines, we seek to understand the decisions behind every bottle: soil, climate, harvest timing, extraction methods and the role of oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe taste hundreds of wines every year under a rigorous selection process and a clear editorial vision. Not every wine we encounter becomes part of our portfolio. It is precisely this process of comparison, analysis and reflection that we bring to these sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTemple Talks is a natural extension of that journey. A space where we share not only wines, but also context, references, questions and accumulated experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSession Theme\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGranite Wines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur fascination with granite-grown wines began long before this session was conceived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the years, some of the most exciting wines we have ever tasted have come from granite terroirs: from Dão to Galicia, from Beaujolais to the Northern Rhône, and of course, Gredos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, it was alongside \u003cstrong\u003ePedro Parra\u003c\/strong\u003e, widely regarded as the world's leading terroir expert, during our time working together at Domínio do Açor and Cortes de Cima, that we truly began to understand the depth and qualitative potential of granite soils. Through vineyard walks, soil pits and countless conversations about geology, we confirmed why granite deserves its place among the world's great wine-growing soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor decades, limestone naturally occupied a central place in discussions about the world's greatest wines. And rightly so. Yet granite, when combined with the right climate, exposure, altitude and degree of soil weathering (Pedro Parra's famous \u003cem\u003ealterites\u003c\/em\u003e), can produce wines of extraordinary elegance, energy, precision and ageing potential, capable of standing alongside the finest limestone-grown wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this second edition of Temple Talks, we will explore different interpretations of this fascinating terroir through producers and regions where granite plays a defining role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than comparing regions or grape varieties, our objective is to understand how a shared geological origin can give rise to some of the most profound, elegant and emotionally compelling wines in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo Be Announced\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 2nd\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTime:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVenue:\u003c\/strong\u003e Filtrô – Creative Lab\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRua das Trinas 102\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1200-860 Lisbon, Portugal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maximum 13 participants\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePurchasing a ticket guarantees participation.
