Filipa Pato Bairrada 3B Método Tradicional Rosé (NV)

Filipa Pato comes from a family that's been making wine for five generations. Rather than just working in her family's vineyard, she set out to study winemaking in other parts of the world and returned to Portugal to start her own winery in 2001. The focus of her vineyard is to express the terroir of the Bairrada region, located in the western part of the Beira province (south of Porto & Douro). As a part of expressing the Bairrada region, Filipa Pato also has an interest in preserving the prevalence of Baga, a native grape in the region.

The 3B Baga and Bical, from an Bairrada was born the desire to create an aromatic Tradicional Method; refreshing, honest and elegant based on indigenous grapes from vineyards that respect the region tradition of cultivating. The grapes are harvested by hand after they are pressed gently in vacuum frame. ... the wine ferments with indigenous yeasts in cask and stainless steel vats.
