Nortico Dry Rose Vinho Regional Minho

Nortico Rosé is produced on the south bank of the Minho River in plots so small they are called jardins, or gardens. Soils here are granite and schist, and, though it sees a lot of rainfall (up to 2,000mm, annually) the inland area is warmer than the coast, allowing for perfect maturation and balance in the fruit. Historically, this area has been best known for reds, producing light aromatic reds locally called Palhete. This rosé evokes that style.
