Rosé da Fita Preta Cuvée Nº8 Non Millésime

13,40€

A “non vintage” Rosé that blends the youth and freshness of the youngest vintages with the complexity of lees ageing, that only older vintages can give. It is refined and complex, without ever loosing the simplicity and freshness that makes a great Rosé.

Grape Varieties: Castelão (Periquita), Trincadeira (Tinta Amarela) and Aragonez (Tempranillo).

Climate: Continental mediterranean, hot and dry days, with very cold nights.

Tasting Note: Light salmon colour. The creamy texture on the pallet and a sensation of sweetness is perfectly balanced with a refreshing level of acidity.

Viticulture: Water being close by is a determining factor in all our vineyards, ensuring that the water table is close by, which ensures fresh soils and unirrigated, dry viticulture. Our vineyards are either cultivated or under the Organic Production regime, and they are all part of the Alentejo Vineyard Sustainability Program.

Vinification: Manual night harvest to ensuring that the grapes are fresh, followed by gentle crushing into the vat by gravity (the grapes never touch pumps), with an open valve. Then, natural cold decanting, without any additives. Indigenous yeast fermentation in stainless steel vats without any barrel (unoaked). 55% drained juice and 45% whole bunch pressing. Bottled in January 2024.

Food Pairing: Well matched to a range of lighter dishes such as seafood, pork and chicken. Surprisingly successful with more strongly flavored Indian, Thai, and Japanese cuisine.

Storage and Service: Store at 6-8ºC to serve at 10ºC and enjoyed at 12ºC.

Winemakers: António Maçanita, Sandra Sárria.
