Vintage Report

There is no specific vintage report available for Alentejo 2024 in the provided data or global reference. Grapes ripen early in this region due to the heat.

This white wine from Esporão is made from a blend of Antão Vaz, Roupeiro, and Perrum grape varieties. The vineyards are rich in granite, clay, and loam, and the vines are approximately 16 years old. The region is best known for its red wines, but white grapes also thrive here. Due to the heat, the grapes ripen early, and the harvest often takes place as early as August.

The leading winery Esporão

The history of the Esporão estate goes back a long way. Today, it is a leading producer of Portuguese quality wines and olive oil. The company also excels in sustainability. In 1985, the most modern winery in Portugal was built, using natural techniques as much as possible. A second winery was added in 2002, focusing primarily on white wine. The vineyards are located in the Alentejo region. This region is characterized by a summer of very hot days and sharp drops at night, followed by a winter that is extremely cold by Portuguese standards. This climate, combined with volcanic soil and local grape varieties, creates original wines. This white wine was first released in 1992. Its name comes from the monte located next to the Caridade dam, near Herdade do Esporão. Produced according to the region's winemaking traditions, the variety of grapes and winemaking techniques reflect the character of the region from which it originates: rich aromas, a soft palate, and an excellent gastronomic disposition.

Enjoy this Esporão Monte Velho White

A very enjoyable Portuguese wine from Esporão. It has a light straw yellow color in the glass, and the aroma reveals primarily hints of stone fruit and citrus. The palate is robust and well-balanced, with fruit taking center stage. The wine concludes with a particularly long finish. It's a gastronomic wine and pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Serve the Monte Velho White with fish, sushi, Mediterranean, or Asian dishes.
