Herdade do Rocim, Mariana Branco 2024 Vinho Regional Alentejano

“The Mariana 2024 is bright and sunny, the rich roundness of Antão Vaz filling the mouth with apple and pear flavour, yet it’s only 12.5% alcohol, with a breezy acidity and slight floral lift that makes it as refreshing as it is flavourful. As I wrote in my tasting note, ‘It feels wholesome and satisfying, complex enough to hold its own for a quiet summer evening but with enough personality to cut through the noise of the party you might bring it to.’”
