Herdade do Rocim

The Herdade do Rocim Fresh from Amphora Tinto is the result of a partnership between Herdade do Rocim and Niepoort, adopting the Nat´Cool concept and the philosophy of relaxed and easy-to-drink wines. This interpretation uses the ancestral method of making wine in amphorae, with the amphorae contributing to a light, fresh, and very harmonious wine.

Climate: Typically Mediterranean, presented in the Vidigueira sub-region where climatic conditions are the most temperate in Alentejo, providing an optimal microclimate for the production of high-quality wines.

Soils: Low-productivity, of granitic and schist origin. Great pedological potential for vine cultivation and for obtaining wines of excellence.

Vinification: Vinification took place by the traditional process, in clay amphorae, without temperature control. The ancestral method of making wine in amphorae was fully respected. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts from the region and without any addition or correction of the musts.

Aging: Two months of skin contact inside the amphora.

Herdade do Rocim

Herdade do Rocim is a property located between Vidigueira and Cuba, in Baixo Alentejo, with about 120 hectares, including 70 hectares of vineyards and 10 hectares of olive groves. Acquired in 2000 by Movicortes, S.A., in the following years there was restructuring and qualification work, consummated with the planting of most of the vineyard that today constitutes the Herdade do Rocim. This process of implantation was made according to specific criteria that allow the production of high quality grapes. The winery is a structuring element of the Herdade do Rocim project, which combines wine production with the aesthetic quality of its architecture and works as a promotional element for the requalification of the region. At Herdade do Rocim all efforts go in the direction of doing well, always improving and with a constant concern for the quality of the wine.
