Sobreiro de Pegões Colheita Branco

The grapes underwent a short skin maceration followed by temperature-controlled
fermentation with selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks to retain the freshness and
purity of fruit from the indigenous varietals. The varieties were blended and aged
without oak influence, resulting in a fresh and fruity style wine.

Santo Isidro de Pegões was founded in 1958 and has subsequently seen significant
investment in the winery and vineyards. Today, the cooperative is made up of 100
winegrowers and has access to over 1,200 hectares of vineyard located in the Terras
do Sado area of the Setúbal Peninsula. This coastal area benefits from mineral-rich
sandy soils and cooling Atlantic winds, in which indigenous varieties thrive. Santo Isidro
de Pegões is one of the most forward-thinking cooperatives in Portugal and their chief
winemaker, Jaime Quendera one of Portugal's most respected winemakers. In 2018,
Santo Isidro de Pegões was awarded the Portuguese Wine Producer of the Year Trophy
from the IWSC.
