The Pico island is one of nine islands which makes up the Azores archipelago, located about 1,000 miles west of continental Portugal. Pico is also one of the three Azorean appellations demarcated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The island’s wineries, with harsh maritime climate and tough volcanic terrain, are built with corrals (volcanic stone walls) surrounding their vines to protect them throughout the growing season.
50% Merlot, 50% Syrah
In honor of, and in dedication to, the Adega Lucas Amaral matriarch who survived cancer, comes this Merlot & Syrah rosé from the volcanic island of Pico.
Tasting Notes: A wine with outstanding aroma of raspberry, pomegranate, with notes of red apple. In the mouth it reveals a remarkable acidity that transforms into an intense and fresh wine.
