O Produtor, tasting note published in June 27th 2022
Subtle and delicate nose is the result of the combination between the aroma of the Sierra vineyards and the barrels matured with Champagne base wines, which gives it a unique complexity that is transmitted in the mouth.
Vinyle 2021 is made with grapes from a century-old vineyard located in Serra de São Mamede.
It was vinified and aged in 2 barrels of 500 litres previously used to vinify the Sidecar 2020 with the renowned champagne producer Emmanuel Lassaigne who previously used them to vinify the base wine of one of his best champagnes.
The name Vinyle is a tribute to Emmanuel’s great passion: music and vinyl records.
Contains sulphites.

She started working as a winemaker at Quinta do Côtto, Douro, in 1999. In 2002 she moved to Quinta do Crasto, also in the Douro valley, where she worked as winemaker until 2007. Since 2007 she has worked as a consultant for several Alentejo wineries including Tiago Cabaço wines, Herdade do Barrocal, Monte dos Cabaços and Monte da Raposinha. Throughout her career she managed to accumulate a fair share of awards. In 2012 she managed to receive the award of “Best winemaker of the Year” by Revista dos Vinhos, being the only female winemaker to receive so far such an award. At the end of 2009 Susana Esteban decided to establish herself as a wine producer starting her personnel project. She decided to make wines full of character in a slightly different style of the Alentejo traditional way.
