Miguel Nunes

Miguel Nunes represents a new wave of Portuguese natural winemakers, crafting authentic, terroir-driven wines in the countryside between Lisbon and the Tejo region. Working primarily with indigenous grape varieties like Arinto and Fernão Pires, Miguel focuses on minimal intervention, spontaneous fermentation, and careful selection of vineyard sites rooted in unique slate and sandy soils.

Each bottle from Miguel’s Fizei project captures the essence of Portugal’s diverse landscapes. Handpicking grapes at optimal ripeness, he refrains from filtration or excessive sulfites, preserving the wine’s natural texture, freshness, and complexity. The resulting wines exhibit vibrant fruit flavors, refined acidity, and subtle mineral undertones—ideal for adventurous wine enthusiasts, forward-thinking sommeliers, and anyone seeking a genuine expression of Portuguese terroir.

Miguel’s dedication to low-intervention methods and respect for the environment makes Fizei wines both sustainable and memorable. From crisp, mineral-driven whites to characterful rosés and balanced reds, his portfolio bridges the gap between tradition and innovation. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or exploring natural wines for the first time, Miguel Nunes’s creations invite you to discover Portugal’s rich vinicultural heritage in every sip.
