Quinta da Murta Rosé Sparkling

Quinta da Murta Rosé Sparkling is a Portuguese sparkling rosé from the Lisbon region, made in Bucelas from Touriga Nacional by the classic method, with the second fermentation in bottle. It is a pink fizz with real substance, for birthdays, aperitifs or any evening that deserves bubbles.

Tasting notes

The estate describes it as fresh, fruity and intense, with a pink colour. The wine rests at least a year and a half on its lees before disgorgement, which gives finer bubbles and a touch of toast behind the red berry fruit.

Food pairing

Open it with a seafood platter, prawns, salmon tartare, fried peixinhos da horta or a strawberry tart. It also works with leitão.

About Quinta da Murta
