Description

Monte Branco white is a blend of Arinto, Rabigato, Esgana Cão and Galego Dourado, Portuguese grape varieties that express the identity and freshness of the Estremoz terroir. The grapes are hand-harvested, and vinification combines an initial skin contact under temperature control, followed by co-fermentation in used French oak barrels.

The wine is aged for 10 months in 600-litre French oak barrels, with one and two years of use, benefiting from bâtonnage over a period of 12 weeks. A white wine crafted with precision and care, where the use of oak is carefully balanced to respect varietal expression and overall harmony.

Founded in 2004, Adega do Monte Branco is dedicated to the production of authentic wines from Portuguese grape varieties, with a deep respect for Nature. Located in Estremoz at around 400 metres of altitude, the estate benefits from a unique microclimate shaped by diverse soils and moderate temperatures. Its 26 hectares of vineyards form the foundation of balanced wines with character and a clear Alentejo identity.
