Rosé · 2021

Serious, long-aged old-vine Douro rosé

Serious, long-aged old-vine Douro rosé. Light ruby with strawberry, small red fruits, floral notes and gentle oak; fresh, soft and balanced, with a long, fruit-led finish.

THE PLACE

Ervedosa do Douro

Ervedosa do Douro

IN THE CELLAR

Field blend of old traditional Douro red varieties

Hand harvested; short maceration in granite lagar and 24-hour cool pre-fermentation maceration; stainless-steel fermentation, partial ageing for 18 months in 225-litre French oak and a further nine months in stainless steel.

FOR THE LIST

Roast salmon, charcuterie, duck, grilled tuna or richer seafood dishes.

This is a deliberately vinous, cellar-aged rosé from very old Douro vines-not a pale seasonal afterthought.

The producer

A seven-generation family estate at Ervedosa do Douro. Furada restored its traditional granite and schist lagares for foot-trodden vinification, while the Pata D'Urso wines draw on very old mixed vineyards and long, patient cellar ageing.
