Mateus Rose Magnum Rosé

Description

Mateus Rosé Magnum is a rosé wine from Bairrada, Portugal, produced by Sogrape Vinhos. The winemaking is overseen by Miguel Pessanha. It is made from a blend of the Baga, Rufete, Tinta Barroca and Touriga Franca grape varieties. Mateus Rosé is a light, fresh, young wine with a slight "pétillant" character. Its quality, extreme versatility and consistent style make it the ideal wine to accompany life's good moments. The wine is made using the traditional method used for white wines, with a slow fermentation without grape skins, in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16°C. Fining is followed by cold stabilization, after which the wines are filtered and bottled. The entire process is handled with great care to consistently preserve the unique style, colour and freshness of Mateus. It has a brilliant rosé colour. On the nose, it is fresh and seductive, with good aromatic intensity and all the youthfulness of young wines. Very balanced and inviting, it is brilliantly complemented by a smooth, slightly "pétillant" finish. It pairs well with light Asian and Italian dishes. Serve at 7–10 °C. With 11% vol., it comes in a 1.5 L bottle. This rosé shines best well chilled, in a white wine glass. It is ideal for outdoor meals, snacks and light cuisine, and can accompany a meal from start to finish. Store the bottle lying down, in a cool, dark place without temperature fluctuations. Once opened, reseal it and keep it in the refrigerator to preserve its aromas.
