O Produtor, tasting note published in August 28th 2022

We talk about the orographic feature formed by the Serra do Mendro, which separates Alto and Baixo Alentejo. This fault in Vidigueira, oriented east-west, forms a natural corridor for the influence of the Atlantic winds. It was here, looking at the light blue sky, that we dreamed of our wines. The Reserva Branco blends the terroir of this land, influenced by the cooler climate and the diversity of skeletal soils, resulting in a wine of balance, perfumed aroma, linear structure, and great density and minerality. Harvest: A patient and attentive winemaking process allowed for precise harvesting of all the grape varieties, respecting the natural freshness and the varietal character of the grapes, anticipating wines that are very balanced and highly enjoyable.

Herdade Aldeia de Cima

Dans la Herdade Aldeia de Cima, il n’y a pas de terrain comme les autres. Ses caractéristiques particulières ont attiré et installé la population ici depuis des temps immémoriaux. C’est sur une terre fraîche, à 330 mètres d’altitude et sur la pente du rocher mère xisto, que le village a été construit.
Santana est un petit village de la municipalité de Portel, à côté de l’ancienne voie romaine entre Évora et Beja, qui borde Vidigueira, à la limite sud de l’Alto Alentejo. “Sant’Anna da Serra do Mendro” est mentionnée pour la première fois au XVIIIe siècle, après le remaniement de l’église médiévale, entre “deux villages qui l’appellent huma a de Baxo, un autre a de Sima”, selon les souvenirs de la paroisse de Portel, Vila Viçosa, de 1722 à 1832. La colonie de “Sima”, référencée en 1758, aura donné naissance à la Herdade Aldeia de Cima”.
