Mateus Rose
Mateus Rosé is perhaps the most famous Portuguese wine in history. Created in 1942 by Fernando Van Zeller Guedes, the founder of Sogrape, it became a global cultural icon in the 1960s and 70s. It is instantly recognizable by its unique flask-shaped bottle, which was inspired by the canteens used by soldiers during World War I. At its peak, it accounted for nearly 40% of all Portuguese wine exports and was famously enjoyed by icons like Jimi Hendrix, Steve Jobs, and even the Queen of England.
Wine Description
The Mateus Rosé Original is a light, young, and fresh wine known for its slight "pétillance" (fizz).
Appearance: A bright and appealing salmon-pink hue.
Nose: Fresh and seductive with an intense bouquet of young red fruits—think raspberries, strawberries, and red currants—mixed with floral hints of rose petals.
Palate: Well-balanced and tempting, it offers a soft, creamy texture with a refreshing acidity. The signature slight sparkle (fizz) gives it a lively, "mouth-filling" sensation and a clean finish.
Technical Details: A blend of traditional Portuguese red grapes, including Baga, Rufete, Tinta Barroca, and Touriga Franca. It typically has a low alcohol content of 11% ABV and around 15 g/L of residual sugar, giving it a semi-dry (off-dry) profile.
