Espadeiro

Espadeiro is a red grape variety with character, originating in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. Its main growing areas are in the Portuguese region of Vinho Verde and in neighboring Galicia in Spain, where it benefits from its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. What makes them so special is their elegant, rather light style, which differs significantly from strong, tannin-heavy red wines. Its thin skin gives it a bright ruby-red color and an alluring bouquet of fresh red fruits such as strawberries, raspberries and red currants, often accompanied by floral notes and a subtle spicy undertone. Its proximity to the sea sometimes also gives it a cool, iodine-like minerality. On the palate, it reveals a lively, refreshing acidity and moderate, soft tannins – making it uncomplicated, elegant and extremely drinkable. She is appreciated for her freshness and her ability to wonderfully reflect the character of her Atlantic-influenced homeland. Usually produced as a light red or rosé, it can even surprise with a fine perlage. . Perfectly chilled, it is the ideal accompaniment to tapas, seafood or a balmy summer evening with friends.

Espadeiro – leichter Roséwein aus dem Vinho Verde

Espadeiro ist eine der stillen Hauptdarstellerinnen im Vinho Verde: wenig bekannt, aber charaktervoll. Bei Vinoscout findest du zwei Roséweine aus dieser Rebsorte, ab 5,95 Euro.

Herkunft & Charakter

Espadeiro wächst im Nordwesten Portugals, im kühlen, regenreichen Anbaugebiet Vinho Verde. Die Sorte liefert dort leichte, frische Roséweine mit lebendiger Säure und einem dezenten Perlspiel – typisch für die Region. Im Glas zeigen sich Aromen von roter Johannisbeere, Erdbeere und einem Hauch Granatapfel, unterlegt von einer blumigen Note. Der Alkohol bleibt niedrig, der Stil unkompliziert und trinkfreudig. Espadeiro-Rosés sind keine Lagerweine – sie leben von ihrer Frische und trinken sich am besten jung und gut gekühlt.
