Pop this when you want a little celebration without the big-occasion price tag. Pale rose-petal pink, a steady stream of tiny bubbles, and a taste that's all apple, pear and fresh raspberry with a zippy, dry finish. It's a brilliant aperitif. Chill it down, pour it before the food lands, and watch the mood lift. Yes, it's in that famous curvy Mateus bottle, so it looks the part on any table.
First sip is bright and dry, not sweet. You get crisp orchard fruit (think apple and ripe pear) with a pop of raspberry, a little floral lift on the nose, and a faint hint of toasted bread underneath. The bubbles are fine and feathery rather than aggressive, so the mousse feels soft on your tongue. Fresh, lively acidity keeps it clean and makes you want the next sip. Light, refined, easy to love.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Mateus is Portugal's most famous rosé, made by Sogrape, the family winery that kicked the whole thing off back in 1942. The name and that baroque mansion on the label come from the real Mateus Palace in Vila Real. This sparkling version is made the Charmat way, a second fermentation in tank that locks in those fresh, fruity flavours, using Portuguese Baga grapes alongside Shiraz. The curvy bottle was reportedly inspired by the flasks soldiers carried in the First World War. A proper bit of wine history that still tastes fresh today.
