Rio Grande do Sul produces the vast majority of Brazil's grapes and wine, all thanks to Italian immigrants who planted vines on the Serra Gaúcha's steep hills starting in the 1870s.
Freshly pressed, deep-purple grape juice sold at harvest-season street stalls and farm markets around Bento Gonçalves and the Vale dos Vinhedos. It's served cold, often alongside grapes and cheese from the same small producers.
Why it's made this way: Italian immigrant winegrowers concentrated in Rio Grande do Sul's Serra Gaúcha region, making it Brazil's dominant grape-growing area and giving the state's grape juice a distinctly local pedigree.
