Encostas de Alqueva is the producer of Jose Piteira DOC
<p></p><p>Susana Esteban was born in Tui, Spain. She holds a degree in Chemical Sciences from the University of Santiago de Compostela and a Master's degree in Viticulture and Oenology from the University of La Rioja. She began her trajectory as an oenologist in 1999 at Quinta do Côtto, and later worked as an oenologist at Quita do Crasto between 2002 and 2007. Both farms are located in the Douro. She has worked since the 2007 harvest as a consultant in different Alentejo producers, namely Tiago Cabaço Wines, Herdade do Barrocal, Monte dos Cabaços and Monte da Raposinha.</p>
<p></p><p>Nunes Barata is a wine project located in Cabeção (Upper Alentejo, in the north region of Portugal). Due to its exceptional terroir, is an area with a unique background in the production of high quality wines, full of character and is known for its famous wines made in clay pots. Here, the vineyard and the wine were, since always, the main economic activity.</p>
<p>Herdade Aldeia de Cima Myndru Red is a unique Alentejo wine that reflects the terroir of the Serra do Mendro, made from grape varieties such as Alfrocheiro, Tinta Grossa and Baga and aged in plaster and clay amphorae. On the nose, it has fine aromas of red fruit, balsamic notes of carrasco and cistus, and earthy minerality. On the palate, it reveals a vigorous structure with round tannins, unctuousness and juiciness balanced by acidity, culminating in a long, persistent finish that expresses the complexity and depth of its micro-territory.</p>
<p></p> <p>Herdade do Monte da Ribeira was acquired in 1986 by the industrialist Victor Carmona e Costa who, in the following 15 years, not only completely reformed the estate, but also implemented the entire productive agricultural structure and wine cellar.<br />Herdade is owned by Casa Agrícola HMR SA, which is wholly owned by a foundation that bears the name of its two Founders, the Victor and Graça Carmona e Costa Foundation. The Foundation, with headquarters and own facilities in Lisbon, is dedicated to supporting contemporary art in Portugal and Casa Agrícola HMR SA is one of its foundational assets</p>
<p></p><p>Susana Esteban Special Edition impresses from the first moment by its intensity and peculiarity. The result of the combination of the aroma of Touriga Nacional and Alicante Bouschet, which only in exceptional cases reveals itself aromatic and subtle. In the mouth it has an unusual harmony, with soft and elegant tannins that give it a unique complexity that is transmitted in the mouth where it is ample and deep and mineral</p>
