Catarina rose appears to complete the range of this wine brand

Bacalhôa Group recently completed the Catarina family. Fruit of the best clay-limestone terroirs of Azeitão and sandy terroirs of Palmela, Catarina Rosé is now born. The family name appears in 1981 with the wine, inspired by D. Catarina de Bragança, Princess of Portugal and Queen of England. With an eye on the vineyard that started to produce it, present through a painting in a beautiful farm in Azeitão, this wine brought a new wine concept to the national market.

Then it was the turn of the red in 2018, and now this balanced and fresh rosé is born, from the 2021 harvest, with notes of forest fruits and the brand’s irreverence. Elegant, mineral and with a very long and fresh finish.

This wine from the Setúbal Peninsula is based on two carefully selected grape varieties, the irreverent Castelão (75%), one of the most renowned varieties of this region and Cabernet Sauvignon (25%), one of the most iconic in the history of Bacalhôa. The must slowly fermented at low temperatures, which allowed it to preserve the primary aromas and flavors of the grape varieties. Castelão contributes red fruits, such as strawberry and raspberry. In turn, Cabernet delivers aromas of violets, spices and wild berries. With this novelty, Grupo Bacalhôa demonstrates, once again, its culture of permanent innovation, following the evolution of the market and creating trends. A wine that can also be tasted in Bacalhôa wine tourism.
