STORY: The Portuguese winery began its success story by breeding Lusitano horses.
-
EXPANSION: After the harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house to be sorted and gently crushed. Temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in both stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels. After the fermentation process, 15% of the wine matures in French oak barrels, the remaining 85% remains in stainless steel tanks.
-
EVALUATION: Appears in the glass with a bright citrus yellow color and a light green touch. Expressive nose with hints of stone fruit and floral notes. Harmonious, well-balanced white wine, the barrique aging of up to 10% of the wine gives it structure and body. Sustainable and full-bodied on the palate.
-
SERVING RECOMMENDATIONS : The well-structured rosé presents a light salmon-pink color in the glass and a fruity-fresh nose with notes of tangerines and oranges. Full-bodied on the palate with lots of fruit (strawberries), supported by a fine and lively acid structure, it remains present for a long time on the finish.

SERVING TEMPERATURE: 8-10 °C
The Monte da Ravasqueira winery was initially acquired as a house for the family of D. Manuel de Mello for horse breeding. Today, Monte da Ravasqueira has a total of 45 hectares of vineyards in the Alentejo and grows wine here on a whopping eight different soil types. The vineyards in the hinterland of the capital Lisbon are planted with some classics of Portuguese viticulture. Part of the success of Monte da Ravasqueira wines is the dedication of the talented oenologist Pedro Pereira Gonçalves. Since 2012 he has been unswervingly committed to maximum wine quality. This also includes the establishment of successful wine brands such as Guarda Rios, Coutada Velha and Landau.
