The Story: Crafted by the Adega Cooperativa de Ponte da Barca, this playful pink version of Portugal's famous "green wine" is made to capture the vibrant, breezy energy of the Atlantic coast. Just like its white counterpart, it is bottled with a signature, intentional little fizz and is meant to be enjoyed young, chilled, and often.
Why You'll Love Me: It is bright, lightly fizzy, and utterly crushable. You will instantly catch lively, summery aromas of wild strawberry, crushed raspberry, and a hint of fresh watermelon. Thanks to its playful spritz and naturally low alcohol content, it dances on the palate with a crisp, thirst-quenching, and entirely uncomplicated finish.
