Santo Estêvão or St Estevam is an island in Tiswadi, Goa, India. St Estevam is known also Jua and in the past was known as ''Shakecho Juvo'' – the isle of vegetables – known for its long, seven-ridged, light green ladyfingers.

The variety is a permitted grape in the Spanish '' Denominación de Origens'' (DOs) of Valdeorras and Monterrei in Galicia and Bierzo in nearby Castile and León. In Spain, the variety is known as Doña Blanca (except in Valdeorras, where it is primarily known as Valenciana), while in Portugal it goes mainly by the name Doña Branca.
