Herdade do Portocarro Tears of Anima Rosé

Tears of Anima Rosé is a Portuguese rosé wine from Herdade do Portocarro, an estate in the Península de Setúbal, just south of Lisbon. It is a rosé with backbone, made for the table as much as for the terrace, and a good way to discover a region most people only know for its sweet Moscatel.

Tasting notes

Bright and lively, with fresh acidity carrying red fruit and a fine, lingering finish. It has more grip and length than a simple poolside rosé, so it holds its own with food. Tasting notes vary a little from one bottling to the next.

Food pairing

The producer suggests grilled fish with roast potatoes. We also like it with salmonetes grelhados, a tomato and octopus salad, or Setúbal's famous choco frito, fried cuttlefish.
