Susana Esteban, renowned winemaker from Portugal, embraces the “adventure” and searches for the best old vines from the remote Sena de Sao Mamede & Portalegre region. Arinto, Antao, & Vaz Roupeiro are the obscure grapes used here but their quality & not their identification is the important criteria for Susana.

The wine is extremely fragrant with flavors & aromas of lavender and stone fruits. A nice thread of minerality holds it all together. Full bodied but fresh & vibrant -- this is “a wine that is truly made in the vineyard."
