Soft and fruity Portuguese rosé.

In the press:

"This delicious rosé has more presence than some. Its deep pink colour would partner fresh strawberries perfectly, and it tastes full of this sweet fruit, too. It has a strong cherry character and a good, dry finish."
Jamie Goode, Sunday Express, 7 February 2010 (2008 vintage)

    • Press quotes
    From the estuary of the Tagus, some 35 miles north of Lisbon, a hand-harvested blend of 50-50 shiraz and touriga national (famous as the backbone of Port). Subdued on the nose but with lovely silky, supple fruit on the palate and a smooth dry to off-dry finish, it's ideal alongside chicken or prawn salad.
