Amphora

2013 Alentejo Antão Vaz (40%), Perrum (20%), Rabo de Ovelha (20%), Manteúdo (20%)

Rocim Amphora is a captivating white wine from the Alentejo region that beautifully showcases the unique character of its varietals. Composed of a harmonious blend of Antão Vaz, Perrum, Rabo de Ovelha, and Manteúdo, this wine presents a medium body that leaves a delightful impression on the palate. The acidity is bright and refreshing, invigorating the senses and enhancing the overall profile of the wine. Expect to find a prominent fruit intensity, with notes that dance between tropical and stone fruits, inviting each sip to transport you to sun-kissed landscapes. The mouthfeel is round and well-structured, complemented by a subtle and firm tannin presence that adds depth without overpowering the uplifting fruit notes. This wine is bone dry, making it a versatile companion for a variety of dishes or perfectly enjoyable on its own.

Best known for its port dessert wine, Portugal is also home to some seriously worthwhile—though frequently overlooked—red and white table wines. This small country on the Iberian Peninsula has a wide range of climates, allowing it to produce everything from light and crisp whites in the Atlantic-cooled northwest to ripe and juicy reds in the hot and hilly Douro Valley. What often sets apart Portuguese wines is that they are often made from local grapes rather than more familiar international varieties. Difficult to pronounce (but a joy to drink!), common varietals include Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cão, and Loureiro.
