Herdade do Rocim

The “Mariana” White is a young and lively wine, with generous fruit, freshness, and aromatic richness, showcasing the charm of the region.

Climate: Typically Mediterranean, characteristic of the Vidigueira sub-region, where climatic conditions are the mildest in Alentejo, providing an optimal microclimate for high-quality wine production.

Soils: Low-yielding, of granitic and schist origin, with excellent potential for viticulture and the creation of outstanding wines.

The Antão Vaz, Arinto, and Alvarinho grape varieties are trained on a single ascending plane, in a plot with a slight eastward exposure and rows oriented east-west.

Vinification: Handpicked in 12 kg crates. After selection on a vibrating sorting table, the grapes underwent cold skin maceration. Fermentation took place in small stainless steel tanks at 14.5ºC for 19 days. After bottling, the wine was aged in the bottle for one month.

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.
