Herdade da Lisboa 'Convés' Rosé 2024

Herdade da Lisboa 'Convés' Rosé 2024 draws its inspiration from centuries of Portuguese winemaking heritage and the legendary exploits of maritime explorer Vasco da Gama.

Situated in Alentejo—Portugal's largest wine region, encompassing a third of the country—the estate occupies the Vidigueira sub-region near Selmes. T

he name 'Convés' (meaning "deck of a boat") honors da Gama's historic voyage to India, for which the King of Portugal rewarded him with the title Count of Vidigueira and granted him these very lands.

Acquired by João Cardoso and his two sons in 2011, Herdade da Lisboa continues an 18th-century winemaking tradition with contemporary vision and care.

This rosé unites two of Portugal's most distinguished red varieties: Touriga Nacional, celebrated for its depth and structure, and Aragonez, the nation's most widely planted grape. The careful balance of these noble varieties creates a rosé of considerable character and complexity.

The 2024 vintage displays a delicate salmon hue with aromatic intensity that belies its refreshing nature. Expect bright red fruit notes—strawberry and raspberry—interwoven with subtle mineral undertones and a crisp, clean finish.

This is a rosé built for serious appreciation, equally compelling as an aperitif, paired with Mediterranean cuisine, or enjoyed leisurely on warm afternoons. A wine that honors tradition while celebrating the elegance modern Portuguese winemaking achieves.
