Nortico Dry Rose 2021

Nortico Dry Rose is praised for its clean, crisp, and refreshing qualities, with flavors of strawberry, watermelon, and citrus. It offers a dry, bracing finish with a hint of minerality. Some find it polished and elegant, while others note a lack of distinctiveness compared to other Portuguese wines. Its low tannin and light body make it a delightful summer choice.

The Nortico Dry Rosé presents a delicate, pale salmon hue, indicative of its restrained extraction. On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of wild strawberries and red currants, underscored by subtle hints of rose petal and wet stone. The palate is crisp and vibrant, showcasing a harmonious interplay of bright acidity and a whisper of minerality, which elevates its refreshing character. A whisper of white peach and citrus zest emerges mid-palate, leading to a clean, precise finish. This rosé exemplifies the finesse and elegance typical of the Vinho Verde region, making it an exemplary choice for those seeking a sophisticated yet approachable wine.
