Estate production at Herdade do Esporão, made with the first harvest of the vintage.
Gouveio, Roupeiro, Viosinho, Verdelho.
Aged in tulip-shaped concrete tanks to maintain the fresh, bright fruit flavors and aromas.
Certified Organic. Label photograph captured at the Esporão estate.
Made exclusively from organically farmed grapes grown at Herdade do Esporão. To achieve greater freshness, the first varieties harvested are carefully selected. Fermentation and ageing in concrete vats (with their porosity and neutral impact on aromas) enhance the wine’s freshness and fruit purity, resulting in a direct, vibrant, and refreshing profile.
