Review

Vinho Verde Rosé is not so easy to find but deserves to be better know.  It is distinct from its white brethren.  The grapes are different for a start – this one blended from Azal, Borraçal and Vinhão of which only the Azal appears in the white versions.  Then the colour is a glorious strawberry pink which glows in the sunshine.  And the taste is good with a nice depth of flavours, fruity underneath, I would swear of strawberries but surely that must be autosuggestion, topped with a savoury minerality which avoids the citrus layers so often found in the whites.

So I’m rather a fan of this offering, especially if you want a little more colour in your life.

Note: when we reviewed this it was only available in a half bottle.  But now the full 750 ml is on offer.

Makers Notes

Presents fresh pink colour and a clear appearance. This is a very fruity wine enhanced by notes of raspberries and strawberries. On the palate the red berries aroma is also evident, well balanced with a nice acidity which characterizes this wine with a great freshness, a solid structure and a harmonious final with a soft persistence.

Tasting Notes

  • Colour: Strawberry
  • Taste: Balanced forest fruits and mineral acidity
  • Body: Dry and light
  • Finish: Long and mineral
