The wine region of Vale do São Francisco
The Vale do São Francisco ("Valley of Saint Francis") is a river valley in the state of Bahia, eastern Brazil. The most remarkable thing about the valley as a wine region is its equatorial latitude, just 9°S. This places it only 1000 kilometers (625 miles) South of the Equator, and 2400km (1500 miles) North of Brazil's core winelands in Rio Grande do Sul. The Climate here is classified as semi-arid tropical.
The wine region of Bahia
Bahia is one of Brazil's 26 states, located in the middle of the vast country's east (Atlantic) coast. Despite its proximity to the Equator, Bahia is home to wine producing Grapevines. These are almost exclusively located in the Vale do São Francisco, one of the world's most extreme wine regions. However Bahia's agricultural economy is focused much more heavily on cacao (of which it is Brazil's main producer) and soybeans.
The word of the wine: Bacchus
Roman god of the vine and wine, often evoked to qualify everything that concerns the world of wine, and in particular its consumption. His name gave the adjective "bachique" which suggests the idea of celebration and conviviality.
