Our single-varietal wines are unique. Produced by Esporão since the 1990s, they reflect the identity of the different grape varieties in their vineyards of origin. Aragonez is a grape variety of great aromatic elegance, known for producing concentrated wines with good aging potential. Our single-varietal wine comes from one of the first vineyards planted at Herdade do Esporão, in 1980 – the Canto do Zé Cruz vineyard.
