This Portuguese Rose is light and refreshing with a bright hue. It is teaming with fresh red fruit. It will pair well with light foods like Peel & Eat Shrimp or all by itself.
Passal is a very established wine in Portugal. This was one of our great finds in 2019 and a fantastic winery selling the majority of their wines to those most familiar with Portuguese wines… the Portuguese. Sometimes simple and original is the best possible option and this is a traditional Portuguese Rose from a classic producer. If you visit Portugal, this is one of the wines you would be able to enjoy.
Portugal has a great history of winemaking. Like most of Europe, Portugal was introduced to wine by the Romans, but as an important Atlantic port country (name of the country is a hint) they also had wine influence from the Phoenicians and Greeks at different times. With a warm temperate Mediterranean climate, Rose is a great choice all year.
