Quinta de la Rosa has been owned by the Bergqvist family since 1906, when it was gifted to Sophia Bergvist’s grandmother, Claire, as a christening present. Quinta de la Rosa was one of the first in the region to embrace the winemaking revolution of the early 1990s.
Branco Reserva is a blend of indigenous grape varieties from old vines at altitude – 45% Viosinho, 20% Arinto,15% Gouveio, 15% Rabigato, and 5% Alvarinho. The wine is partially fermented in stainless steel with the remainder of the fermentation in French oak. It spends a further 6 months in barriques.
The result is an elegant wine with richness and excellent minerality.
