Herdade do Esporão

Alentejo, Portugal

About

A vast estate in the rolling Alentejo plains that combines serious winemaking with olive oil production, a restaurant, and an archaeology museum. The Esporão Reserva wines are consistently excellent, but the real gems are the single-vineyard and amphora-aged wines. The estate's commitment to sustainability includes solar power, water recycling, and regenerative agriculture.

Why It's a Hidden Gem

A complete wine tourism destination in the Alentejo with a restaurant, museum, and amphora wines — yet almost unknown outside Portugal.
