Alento Branco Reserva 2024 – a White with Depth from Estremoz
An elegant Reserva from the Alentejo, bringing together fruit, structure, and freshness.
The vines are located around Estremoz in the heart of the Alentejo, where the continental Mediterranean climate brings hot, dry days and large temperature fluctuations. It is precisely these cool nights that give the wine its freshness. The slate soils bring a fine mineral vein, which can be clearly found in the finished glass.
In the glass, 70% Arinto and 30% Antão Vaz come together – this creates tension. The Arinto provides lively acidity and freshness, while the Antão Vaz adds body and ripe fruit. Aging in wood makes the wine round and creamy without overpowering it. A structured, long-lasting white wine that can do more than just serve as an aperitif.
The wine is made by oenologists Luís Louro and Inês Capão. The grapes are harvested by hand, followed by an eight-hour maceration period. It is fermented in used French oak barriques, with six weeks of bâtonnage – the regular stirring of the fine lees, which gives the wine creaminess and depth. The wine is then aged for six months in used 300-liter French oak barrels. Production is limited to 8,000 bottles.
Cuvée: 70% Arinto, 30% Antão Vaz
