THE VINHOZINHO MAGAZINE

CONTRARRÓTULO

A bottle's truth is on the back label (in Portuguese, the contrarrótulo); the truth about the wine world is here. Once a month: what happened, what's coming and what it changes on your shelf. With sources, like everything in the house.

Issue No. 2 · October 2026“The seal broke. It's Serra Gaúcha, with Brasília at the table.”

The 16 wines that represent the 2026 Vintage and what changes on the shelf, why chilled red isn't heresy, the ballot box that retired, the photos from the table and everything that's launched on the site since September. Read it right here, as text, or download the PDF inside.

Archive · Issue No. 1 · September 2026“Brazil has already tasted the vintage. Nobody can tell until October.”

How the blind tasting that defines the 2026 Vintage works, what gets revealed on October 17, the white from Campanha Gaúcha, the ballot box and this month's strikethrough. Read it right here, as text, or download the PDF inside.

Archive · Issue No. 0 · Pilot“The world drinks less. Brazil drinks better.”

The OIV report, Brazil's record 2026 Vintage, Brazilian sparkling wine in the glass, the harvest calendar and this month's strikethrough. Now as text, to read right here; the 9 printed pages and the PDF are inside.

UPDATE TO No. 0 on the “From the ballot box” page, No. 0 said the score for Round No. 1 would only open after 30 votes. The voting passed that mark and the score opened: since then, the Rankings score has stayed open all the time, in percentages, changing with every new vote. Keeping readers up to date is also a house rule.

The house is open. Leave your e-mail and savour get the first taste: the Garimpo before Instagram, the Contrarrótulo with every issue and the grape of the week every Monday. No spam.

The first sip of news is yours.
