Herdade do Rocim

The “Herdade do Rocim” Branco is a genuine wine, produced from the passion of generations who have always had the greatest respect and tenderness for the land. It is made from the Antão Vaz, Arinto, and Viosinho grape varieties.

Climate: typically Mediterranean, found 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 granite and schist origin. Great pedological potential for vine cultivation and the production of excellent wines.

The Antão Vaz, Arinto, and Viosinho grapes are grown in a single ascending cordon, in a plot with a slight east exposure and lines oriented east-west.

Vinification and aging: Manual harvest in 12 kg crates, during the early morning of August 19 and 20, 2021. After a period of cold skin maceration, fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 14.5ºC for 21 days. After bottling, the wine aged in the bottle for a period of two months.

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.
