🍷 OUTRO JEITO TAKEOVER 🍷
This Thursday we’re welcoming @oj.wine to FUNQ for a special evening of wines from Portugal’s west coast 🇵🇹🌊
The winemaker will be in the house pouring and talking through the wines himself, starting with a casual industry tasting in the afternoon before the bottles roll into a by-the-glass takeover during service.
On pour:
🍊 Ânfora Curtimenta
⚪ Branco de Barrica
🔴 Tinto de Barrica
🍯 Curtimenta de Barrica
Come hang, drink something delicious, and get to know the project behind the bottles 🤙
My name is Andrey. I’m a winemaker at outro jeito.
I wasn’t born into winemaking, and I didn’t study to become an oenologist. I simply reached a point where I got tired of things made strictly “by the book.” I wanted something real — alive, imperfect, but honest.
That’s how I ended up among the vineyards in Portugal. At first, it felt almost irrational: no experience, limited resources, a lot of manual work, and a constant sense that nothing is fully under control. But that’s exactly what pulled me in.
I make natural wine. No effort to make it taste the same every year. No attempt to “fix” nature into something sterile or predictable. For me, wine is not a product — it’s a reflection of a specific season, weather, people, and place.
Sometimes the wine is calm. Sometimes wild. Sometimes it demands patience. Just like life here.
Over time, the winery slowly became more than wine — a space with fire, wood, fermentation, long nights, and people who come not just for a glass, but for something real.
I’m learning and making mistakes. But maybe that’s exactly what keeps it alive.
Two wines, two moods from the Atlantic coast.
Pet Nat made of Castelão — bright, juicy, with a burst of red berries.
Curtimenta — blend of macerated on skins Alvarinho, Viosinho, Arinto & Fernão Pires, herbal and alive, with a distinct touch of oregano.
From Spain to Portugal (a century-long journey), and now just a two-hour ride from Castelo Branco to our cellar — these 100 years old amphoras are back in use, aging wine and carrying tradition forward.
