Description

The name Esquecido means forgotten, because the casks of the test batch were left in the warehouse. The name could also be unforgettable – if you can’t afford Burgundy, white wine Esquecido is a good backup plan. The Arinto grapes grown in clay and slate were harvested by hand, soaked for 24 hours before fermentation, which took place in 400 litre oak casks during two weeks. The wine was matured for 16 months in French oak casks. 2021 was an excellent wine year for Alentejo. Only a small batch of wine is produced and the bottles are numbered.

The producer's responsibility focus areas

We have introduced sheep to the vineyards to reduce the use of weeds, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers through winter grazing. 50% of fertilization comes from animal compost and the winery's organic waste. In recent years, we have successfully reduced the amount of water used per bottle produced by 30 percent, and 100 percent of the water used in the cellar is recycled and used for vineyard irrigation. Because people come first, we promote local employment, provide good working conditions for our team members, create opportunities for professional growth, and invest regularly in training programs. We support social issues in the local community and local organizations.
