VINIFICATION
All grapes are hand-picked and carefully selected before being gently pressed as whole bunches in a pneumatic press to preserve freshness and delicacy.
The must is naturally clarified at low temperature, and only the free-run juice is used. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature, allowing for a slow and precise fermentation that preserves the wine’s aromatic purity.
No oak is used, in order to maintain a clean and vibrant expression of fruit and acidity. The wine remains in stainless steel on fine lees for a short period, enhancing texture and balance, before final blending and bottling.
TASTING NOTES
The Van Zellers & Co 2025 Kika Rosé reveals a fresh and vibrant expression, reflecting a year of balanced
ripening. Made from Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca, it shows an aromatic profile driven
by purity and finesse. On the nose, it reveals notes of wild strawberries, fresh raspberry and a delicate floral
lift, with hints of citrus zest.
On the palate, it is lively and precise, with bright acidity and a smooth, well-balanced texture. Red berry
flavours unfold with clarity, supported by a subtle tension that brings freshness and energy.
The finish is clean and refreshing, with a light saline touch that invites another sip.
Perfect to pair with oysters, sushi, burrata, light salads — or simply enjoyed on its own, well chilled.
