Morgado Do Quintão Rosé

Description

Morgado do Quintão "O Palhete Algarvio" is a wine that revives traditional winemaking practices of the Algarve, blending red and white grapes — Negra Mole and Crato Branco (Roupeiro) — in a simple, authentic, terroir‑faithful approach. The grapes, hand‑picked, are pressed immediately and fermented at controlled temperatures, with no sulfite additions until the end of the process. Produced at Morgado do Quintão — a historic estate with almost two centuries of history, located in Silves — this wine pays tribute to the region’s viticultural legacy and stands as a true ambassador of the “real Algarve”. The current generation of the estate seeks to revive the forgotten roots of Algarvean viticulture, with a philosophy that combines tradition, innovation, and respect for the land. “Less man, more land” is the motto of winemaker Joana Maçanita, who guides the creation of this unique wine. Pairing: Perfect with shellfish, fresh fish or Algarvean regional dishes. A versatile and elegant table wine for: sushi and sashimi; delicately prepared pink‑meat fish; fresh salads and light summer dishes.
