The exceptional conditions of light and the hot sun of Alentejo, together with the humid Atlantic breezes blowing from Northwest, combined with the unique schistous and vulcanic nature of the soil constitute the origin for the outstanding character of the wines from “ESPORÃO” state.
Produced at HERDADE DO ESPORÃO from Castelão and Aragonês grapes, Vinha Da Defesa Rosé shows a vivid pink colour with a floral aroma of cherrys and raspberrys. It has a well balanced fruity palate which is light, fresh and full of charm.
