ESPORÃO<br />

PORTUGAL<br />

With boundaries set as far back as 1267, Herdade do<br />

Esporão is located in Reguengos de Monsaraz, in the<br />

Alentejo region of Portugal and is characterised by the<br />

diversity of its volcanic and schist soils. Warmed by the<br />

Alentejo sun, which is tempered by cool Atlantic breezes,<br />

the estate stretches for over 1,800 hectares and includes 500<br />

hectares of vineyards and 82 hectares of olive groves.<br />

David Baverstock is the chief winemaker at Esporão and is<br />

no stranger to Ireland. David was part of the pioneering first<br />

wave of antipodean flying winemakers and has been crafting<br />

wines at Esporão for over 20 years.<br />
