Periquita White, Rosé and Red with new harvests, just in time for Christmas
18/12/2023One of the oldest table wine brands in Portugal, Periquita, now presents new harvests of White, Rosé and Red. Produced by José Maria da Fonseca, these three new wines have a vibrant profile, fruity notes and refreshing aromas and arrive just in time for Christmas.
Created from the Verdelho, Viosinho, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier grape varieties, the White from the Periquita family is fruity, fresh and aromatic. With a citrus color and a fragrance marked by notes of lantana and passion fruit, this white has a long palate, with the aromas present on the nose being felt at the end. Ideal as an aperitif or to accompany fish and seafood dishes, this White Periquita should be consumed young and fresh.
Periquita Rosé has a lively tone and an intense perfume, in which wild fruits, raspberries and strawberries stand out, borrowed from the Castelão and Aragonês grape varieties. The addition of Touriga Nacional gives it a floral and elegant profile, with a sweet but balanced palate. This rosé pairs well with light dishes, such as salads, seafood or pastas. And it should be consumed very cool, ideally at 8ºC.
Finally, Periquita Red has a red color, aromas of blueberries and black plums on the nose. In the mouth, it is very fruity, with soft and well-integrated tannins. Produced with the Castelão, Trincadeira and Alicante Bouschet grape varieties, this wine aged for six months in new French and American oak. Ideal for serving at a temperature of 16ºC, it is a perfect red to accompany meat, game and cheese dishes with an intense flavor.
