Colheita Seleccionada Rosé
Tasting Notes
This wine displays a pale pink color with intense aromas of tropical fruits and red berries. The palate is fresh, with excellent minerality caused by a wet and cold winter. The finish shows fine acidity and balanced phenolics.
Vineyards
As farmers, the Relvas family feels that they owe the environment a debt of gratitude. Twenty percent of the vineyards are certified organic, and with each passing year, Alexandre converts more vineyards. They use nearby wetlands to filter and reuse water and employ hundreds of Merino sheep to fertilize and “weed” the soil. Also, keen to reforest the area, they have planted over 100,000 native trees.
Vintage Notes
2023 was a year of exceptional quality at Casa Relvas. The vineyards maintained optimal water levels during the growing season with low temperatures throughout. Summer saw normal conditions during the ripening period. The grapes maturation was slow, promising a unique and complex wine.
Winemaking
The grapes were manually harvested and went through a pre- fermentation maceration for 8-12 hours. They were then vacuum pressed and fermented at controlled temperatures in stainless steel vats.
