The first wine made by Esporão in 1985. Our classic Alentejo wine, obtained exclusively from our own grapes, using organic production methods. The diversity of the Esporão estate, together with the different characteristics of the grape varieties, the soils, the maturity of the vines and the people who consistently make this wine over the years, result in a rich, intense, yet always harmonious wine. Label illustrated by Alexandre Conefrey.
VINIFICATION / AGING
Colheita of each grape variety separately, destemming, crushing, alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel vats, concrete vats and small marble lagares, with controlled temperatures, pressing, followed by malolactic fermentation in stainless steel vats.
Aged for 12 months in American and French oak barrels, both new (20%) and used (80%). After bottling, it underwent at least another 6 months of aging in the bottle.
COLOR: Intense ruby.
AROMA: Forest fruits, with hints of blackberries and ripe plum, complemented by spicy notes of cinnamon and licorice.
PALATE: Rich and elegant, where notes of wild berries and sweet spices predominate, in a harmonious and fresh combination. Persistent and balanced finish.
