Amoras Rosado 2012
Estremadura VR
Loading...
Portugal is a top producer of rosados. 25 years ago they were of the medium sweet Mateus ilk, but today they are terrifically crisp and berry fresh. From a terrific Portuguese winemaker, this rosé makes a gloriously zippy, characterful glassful.

The Wine
Portugal’s wines have really come of age, with delicious tasting, fruit rich styles in all three shades. Its reds are probably best known, but the country’s many unique grapes, when picked young and with good acidity, make the ideal varieties to go into fresh, berry filled rosados. Amoras is from Casa Santos Lima, a single estate situated north of Lisbon, which has been in the da Silva family for several generations. Winemaker is Diogo Sepulveda, who has had experience all over the world. For this wine, he combined a rigorous selection of indigenous grapes with a large portion of Cabernet from the estate’s well tended vineyards. A refreshing glassful on its own, it’s also spot-on with all sorts of seafood – Diogo recommends spicy squid.

Tasty and with more body than many rosés. A lot of flavour. Went very well with curry!
