Filipa Pato 3B Rosé Extra Bruto NV
Bairrada, Northern Portugal, PortugalFilipa Pato’s family has been producing wine in Beiras since the 18th century. Her grandfather, João, was the first to bottle wine in Bairrada DOC after it was officially demarcated as an appellation, and her father, Luis, is credited with bringing Bairrada back to life as a viable and vibrant wine region. She has 12 hectares of vineyards scattered across Bairrada, and makes wines along with her husband William Wouters. This traditional method 3B stands for the region, along with the blend of 70/30 baga / bical, from 30+ year old vines on chalky clay. After a native ferment, and 9 months on lees, this is finished with zero sugar, unfined and unfiltered. Tart with cranberry astringency and a base of youthful rhubarb, subtle red currant and dried rose petals on a lean, lively, very mineral-driven base. Fresh and positively skipping with energy, this is a brisk, slight, savoury rosé ideal for charcuterie.Tasted: 17 December 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $24.95 | 750ml | consignment |
