Cortinha Velha Rosé 2023
Monção e Melgaço, Portugal
────────────────────────────
Description
Minho authenticity in delicate rosé tones.
Born from the granite slopes of Monção and Melgaço, Cortinha Velha Rosé 2023 embodies the authentic spirit of northern Portugal. Crafted from native varieties such as Alvarelhão, Padeiro de Basto, Espadeiro and Alvarinho, this rosé blends tradition, freshness and vibrant aesthetics — both in the glass and on the label.
With only 11% alcohol, it is fresh, light, elegant and versatile at the table. A pure rosé, made with direct pressing and low-temperature fermentation, partially in used barrels. Ideal for warm days, light dishes and late afternoons with a view.

Viticulture & Winemaking
Hand-harvested and transported in 20 kg boxes, the winemaking is carefully handled:
• Direct pressing without destemming
• Cold settling
• Fermentation in stainless steel, with a small portion fermented in used French oak barrels
A wine crafted with great respect for the juice and aromatic purity.
