Allesverlorte Tinta Rosé

A rosé from South Africa that shows what Tinta Barocca can do beyond red wine: structured, fruity and with real character in the glass.

Allesverloren is located in the Swartland, one of South Africa's oldest wine-growing regions. Founded in 1872, the estate remains family-owned to this day and is primarily known for its robust red wines made from Portuguese grape varieties such as Tinta Barocca and Touriga Nacional. The Tinta Rosé is a byproduct of this red wine philosophy: short skin contact, careful pressing, and a clear, distinct style.

In the glass, a pale salmon pink. On the nose, strawberry, raspberry, and a hint of dried herbs—rosemary, thyme. On the palate, juicy, with lively acidity and a dry, slightly spicy finish. Not a heavy, sweet rosé, but one with vibrancy and freshness.
