Quinta de Sant’Ana, Rosé, Lisboa, Portugal 2022 {organic} 41% Touriga Nacional, 41% Merlot, 18% Aragonez (Tempranillo)
TART CHERRY & GOJI BERRY, PALATE-PLEASING (& TEASING) ACIDITY To look at Lisboa on a map, one would understandably envision it as producing dense, concentrated reds like those from other, similarly southerly Iberian regions. The reality is astonishingly mild, full of elegance and balance. This small estate lovingly manages its vineyards to impressive effect. Their rosé, while filled with bold red fruit, has a razory precision that jumpstarts the palate, invigorates the appetite, and refreshes the soul. No joke. Serving Suggestions: Stewed eggplant w/ tomatoes, chickpeas, onions, & chili-garlic paste (don’t get too crazy w/ the heat). Stir-fried salt cod w/ onions, egg, rice, & carrots.
