Susana Esteban 'Aventura' Branco, Serra de São Mamde, Vinho Regional Alentejano 2021
30 year old vineyard of hand harvested, indigenous grapes.
Susana's Aventura wines are a celebration, and a result, of the spirit of adventure that lead her to become a wine maker in the first place. Susana began her adventure in 1999 in the Douro and in 2012 she was recognised as "Best wine maker of the Year" by Revista dos Vinhos, the only woman to have done so so far. She was quickly awarded "Revelation Producer of the Year" in 2015 by Wine-Essencia do Vinho"
The Aventura Branco is from a 30 year old vineyard of hand harvested, indigenous grapes. It's definitely a field blend. Mineral, with white stone fruits (think peaches) and lavender on the nose. It's dry, a touch stony, fresh, floral with apple and green citrus notes.
One of the hallmarks of Susana's wines are that the grapes are old vine, indigenous and in most cases field blends. Field blends are usually found in once forgotten vineyards where native verities have naturally flourished but their true identity has been lost in time. Serra de Sao Mamede is in the mountains of Portalalegre in the coolest subregion of Alentejo/Alentejano. It's surrounded by the forests of a national park and 700 meters above the plains of Alentejo, as a result Susana's style of wines are 'not' typical of Alentejo, they're fresher by design, more complex and with an elegance that surprises.
