Procura Red Susana Esteban (Alentejo)
€31.00
“For two years I searched all over the Alentejo for great vineyards to make my wine. It was only in 2011 that I finally found two plots of vineyards, both completely different. One of the plots is an Alicante Bouschet, of very low production planted in schist soils, near Évora, with an excellent climate for the good maturation of this variety. In Portalegre I found a traditional vineyard in a much cooler area than the rest of the Alentejo. A vineyard with a mixture of grape varieties and very low production, which adds an unusual freshness and complexity. The combination of these two parcels gave rise to a unique and extraordinary wine.” Production of 2,140 bottles.
