Procura Branco

Pale straw in colour. The bouquet is austere and shows notes of citrus aromas and dry straw. Mineral and very elegant, it offers an enormous complexity of aromas. The palate proving to be not only elegant but also complex, concentrated and with a vibrant acidity and a depth to the structured finish.

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. For two years she looked around (Procura) all of the Alentejo for the perfect vineyards to set her wines. She had to wait until 2011 to finally discover the two small vineyards that set the foundation for her two wines. In Portalegre, up in the mountains of S. Mamede, she found an old mixed planting of several different varieties, again with very small yields, that provide an amazing complexity and freshness. Susana Esteban has established a recent partnership with her good friend and also winemaker Sandra Tavares to make wines together.
