Description
In a nutshell:
A vibrant, versatile Alentejo white - a flavour of southern Portugal's warmth.
The lowdown:
A fresh and easy drinking white courtesy of the delicious blend of indigenous grapes that go into this. Theres loads of citrus zing - lemons and white fruits and no oak influence means it's all sunshine fruit and crisp minerality. Yet there's complexity, a nicely firm body and a long finish too. Perfect for when you want something with a just touch of seriousness but won't make you think too hard.
The Producer:
Esporão stands squarely as an influential force among Alentejo estates, instrumental in defining the region's reputation for quality winemaking. Established in 1973, their wines balance the warmth of the Alentejo with freshness and complexity. They excel with indigenous varieties and demonstrate a deep understanding of their interplay with the region's unique terroir. Their commitment to sustainability, particularly organic practices, adds a layer of responsibility to their winemaking. And their skill in producing wines of power, structure, and undeniable elegance is clear to see.
When to drink:
Bright and citrusy, its a joy as an aperitif, but also shines alongside grilled sea bream, a vibrant tuna ceviche, or a springy asparagus risotto.
