This wine produced by Patrícia Santos is a tribute to his paternal grandmother Rosa de Jesus, "Rosa da Mata " was the name by which his grandmother was known.
Produced exclusively by grapes Alfrocheiro, from a vineyard located in the subregion of Besteiros, zone of Dão marked by high thermal amplitudes and relative humidity important for the phenolic maturation of this grape in the mornings preceding the harvest. Here the elegance of Dão is the most striking character of this wine. The grapes are harvested manually and at dawn, so that the grape remains integrated and free of oxidation, without laceration of the film until the crushing in the cellar. The fermentation was in Lagar, without temperature control and without mechanical treatments, the reassembly during the tanning is done by wooden monkeys, in order to go to the past, thus maintaining the varietal character of the caste.
The Rosa da Mata presents in evidence an open ruby color, reflecting this little Tintoreira caste, in the nose lies the floral, the aroma the flowering and the smell of the woods in autumn, also has a hint of grape, reminiscent of the harvest. In the mouth is not a simple wine, has the rusticity but at the same elegance.
