Filipa Pato 2015 Bairrada Beiras Tinto 'FP'

Filipa Pato NV Bairrada Brut Rose "3B"

Bairrada, with its cooler maritime climate, has a long history of producing fresh and distinctive sparkling wines of quality from the native grapes of the region. Filipa Pato admirably keeps the tradition alive with her delicious and unpretentious brut rosé made from a blend of Bairrada’s signature noble red variety Baga and the tangy high acid white grape, Bical. Spicy and zesty with notes of bright citrus and red berries, this is a great (and affordable!) pairing for baked fish with paprika and Iberian olive oil or smoked fish brunch.

Mouraz, Casa de 2015 Dão Rose

The first estate of the Dão to receive organic certification, Casa de Mouraz had since fully converted to biodynamic farming and remains committed to making wines which are pure expressions of the region’s terroir. Notes of cool papaya and mouthwatering sea salt surge forth in this blend of 40 year old Touriga Nacional, Portugal's noble and sturdy structure lending variety, Jaen, aka Mencia  in neighboring Galicia, and the  peppery Tinta Roriz grape raised in the granite soil of a single vineyard site. After just a few sips of this racy and electric rosé, you’ll be longing to hear the sweet, sweet sounds of crashing surf and fresh, juicy shrimp marinated in lime sizzling on a hot grill.

Perdigão, Quinta Do 2010 Dão Alfrocheiro

Perdigão, Quinta Do 2014 Dão Encruzado

Bold and richly textured from five months of lees aging and time in French oak, this is a serious expression of 100% Encruzado from one of the Dão region’s most highly respected certified organic producers. While commonly found in blends, as proven by Quinta do Perdigão, Portugal’s aromatically intense and high acid indigenous white grape has great potential to render star quality varietal wines. Here,  chalky minerality and nervy acidity, reminiscent of age-worthy white Burgundy, bring balance and focus while a lively palate of lemon curd and fresh herbs make this wine an excellent companion for hearty fish stews and rich flavorful pork dishes.

Perdigão, Quinta Do 2015 Dão Rose

It is a treat to work with the wines of Quinta do Perdigao in the Dao, whose certified organic vineyards and sensitive winemaking shine across grape variety and vintage. Their profound white Encruzado and red Alfrocheiro are staples here, and the 2015 vintage of their exotic, age-worthy rose has just arrived. 40% Tinta Roriz, 35% Jaen, 15% Touriga Nacional, and 10% Alfrocheiro. Aromas of ripe raspberry, hibiscus, passion fruit, and oregano, with full-flavored, floral palate of wild cherry, spicy raspberry, red currants and rose, blood orange, and soft earth. Delicious all year round with grilled sausage, sushi, and complex, spicy fare. Ariana Rolich

Sidónio de Sousa 2013 Bairrada Tinto

We love the rich, feral Portuguese variety Baga - the great red grape of the Bairrada DOC, which abuts Portugal's Dão region and enjoys a mild, maritime climate. Sidónio de Sousa's Baga is as good as it gets, from 90-year-old vines, fermented whole-cluster and raised for 12 months in ancient Portuguese oak. Pepper and rose petals on the nose, with wild flavors of black currant, red currant, oregano, and rye combine with pine needles, purple flowers, and funky damp earth. It's hard not to dream of roasted or grilled meat with this wine! Ariana Rolich
