Rola Reserva Branco 2023

Description

ROLA Douro White Reserva shows the unique character of the different areas of the Douro region. The grapes for this wine are grown in one plot, where Ana found vineyards that we feel express the freshness of the Douro. These are vineyards with 40 years of age, with a mixed plantings of many varieties.

Rola Reserva White is an elegant white wine in the nose, with touches of apricot & white flowers with the complexity of well balanced oak due to it spending 6 months in second use French barrels. In the mouth this wine reveals freshness & minerality with a beauty acidity that gives a long finish on the palate.

Pairs well with creamy white sauces based dishes. Shellfish, rich veggie casseroles & nuts.

Rola Wines

Ana Rola our “woman in wine” is born & bred in the Douro & since an early age knew what she wanted to do. To be a winemaker in the Douro Valley where she was raised. Where she can find originality, unbeatable terroir knowledge & overcome the challenges in creating a wine that stands out from the crowd!

The estate, Quinta de Remostias, remains from the XVIII century & is located in Peso da Régua, the centre of Douro Valley. In 2014, Ana decided to leave her post as head wine maker at a large prestigious Douro winery to go it alone. 

She explains, “after so many years doing what I love for others, I think it gets to a point that we think ‘why not do it for myself.’” Ana Rola shared, “To make wines that really tell you where they came from. Wine from specific vineyards with minimal intervention. Wines that are true & honest. We believe in what we do!’” & we do too! 

Douro Valley

The Douro Valley, located in northern Portugal, is a historic and renowned wine region known for its exceptional Port and table wines. Recognised as one of the oldest demarcated wine regions in the world, it was officially regulated in 1756. The valley's dramatic landscape, characterised by steep terraced vineyards along the Douro River, creates a unique terroir that is ideal for viticulture.
The area is particularly famous for its Port wines, which range from rich and robust Vintage Ports to smooth and sweet Tawny Ports, crafted from indigenous grapes like Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz. It also produces high-quality red and white table wines, with rich, full-bodied reds and aromatic whites from local varieties such as Touriga Franca and Viosinho. The combination of historical winemaking traditions and modern practices makes the Douro Valley a compelling and storied wine region.
