A Rose that makes us blush with pleasure! Just look at that gorgeous color. Vibrant summer fruit aromas. Persistent berry fruit flavors, good acidity, easy drinking and easy on the pocketbook! CARM stands for Casa Agricola Roboredo Madeira. It's a strictly family concern, having been in the same family since business began in the middle of the 17th century. It's quite a story of a family's dedication to producing the best from such dry, stony terrain. Grapes can excel in these conditions. Very affordable and good company. Keep it on hand for a weekday evening of easy sipping and relaxation.

Their story began with Quintín Ortega in 1986. A humble figure with some good ideas and the determination to carry them out, he decides to plant vines and start what is now the winery, led by his great-grandson, Carmelo Ortega. In the 90s, Carmelo established the winery headquarters in an old house that served as a winery for many years, now a site where an enotourism project is being developed to encourage tourism in the region. Their property covers approximately 700 hectares of scrubland, almond fields and vineyards, all of which are sheltered by the nearby mountains, which create climatic conditions that include a reduced risk of frost and a controlled level of humidity in the summer. This set of features and factors, together with the characteristics of the soil (pebbles, low organic matter), creates a unique grape-growing microcosm, which has allowed them to develop the “village wine” style they are looking for to define the wines of Tudelilla (the village where they are situated in the heart of the Rioja Baja region).. A blend of 90% Garnacha and 10% Viura, this wine has ripe and floral notes, with hints of tropical fruit (grapefruit, passion fruit and orange peel). Serve as an aperitif or cold dishes.

Periquita (in English, the "little parrot") is Portugal's oldest table wine, according to the winemaker. Now that's staying power! It's a great little friend, too, for any informal gathering. This is a real find: simple, fruity and well-balanced with flavours of blueberries and strawberries. The Periquita is typically made using the Castelão, Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca grapes.

Vale Meão is a historic Quinta that is now one of the front runners in the Douro table wine revolution. Made from a blend of 38% Touriga Nacional, 30% Touriga Franca, 20% Tinta Roriz and 12% other varieties, it shows a deep lively color. Look for floral scents combined with red fruit aromas. It fills the mouth with intense fruit notes, showing a long, very fresh and complex after taste.

Carm is part of the Roboredo Madeira winery group, (as are our Vinha da Urze wines), a company that has been producing wine and olive oil since the 17th century. The wine is vinified in Carm's Winery at Quinta das Marvalhas in Almendra, in the heart of Douro Superior. It's a blend of Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional, the trio of red grapes that form the backbone of many Port wines. It's aged in both French and American oak barrels for eight months prior to bottling. Look for expressions of blackberries, mulberry, and black cherry followed by the seductive flavours of black figs and licorice. There's a hint of toasted oak on the palate.
