Mateus announces the launch of Mateus Dry Rosé 2021, the third vintage released in the United States. Coming off the heels of its best worldwide sales results in three decades, Mateus said its Dry Rosé continues to reinvigorate the U.S. rosé category by delivering a wine that embodies the New Shape of Rosé.
With 2022 marking the brand’s 80th anniversary, Mateus Dry Rosé is poised to continue its success with the launch of the 2021 vintage.
Mateus Dry Rosé 2021 is comprised of mostly Portuguese grape varietals which gives it an intensely fruity palate and balanced finish. “Baga and Touriga Nacional are two of the Portuguese grape varietals we used for Mateus Dry Rosé 2021,” said Diogo Sepulveda, the Mateus wine maker. “By using these traditional Portuguese red grape varietals, we are able to achieve an elegant rosé with notes of raspberry, red cherry and strawberry. On the palate, it is fresh and fruit forward, with great balance, refreshing acidity and a harmonious long finish.”
