Nuno Oliveira Garcia, tasting note published in May 5th 2020
Loaded in colour, but very well in the aroma, ripe, full, white fruit and wood already well integrated. The Antão Vaz grape variety showing very well here. It surprises by the freshness and health that it presents. Very gastronomic in the mouth, with acidity very well integrated and still has life ahead although it is already at its best.
HERDADE DO ROCIM TIME CAPSULE is the result of a partnership between Herdade do Rocim, Cláudio Martins (Wine Advisor) and Sommelier Rodolfo Tristão.
A true Time Capsule, consisting of two bottles of Olho Branco Reserva 2008, a corkscrew and a Zalto glass.
This Olho de Mocho Branco Reserva 2008 is a Single Vineyard from Herdade do Rocim made only with Antão Vaz, which definitely proves the ageing capacity of this grape variety and raises the Vidigueira whites to a real level of prestige.

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.
