The focus of Arnot-Roberts is to produce distinctive, site-driven wines that highlight the nature of the unique terroirs in which the grapes are grown. Single-vineyard wines are the core of the production as well as a few appellation bottlings that clearly speak of their individual upbringings. Some of the vineyards are old and dry-farmed, some are newer plantings but all are farmed and cared for by passionate and conscientious growers, which is paramount to the fundamental goal of Arnot-Roberts: producing the most honest and expressive wines possible.

This dry rosé is a blend of majority Touriga Nacional, with Tinta Cão, Trincadeira, and Grenache, all from different vineyards. The grapes are crushed by foot, and allowed to macerate a bit to give light color. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, and the wines are blended and aged together. Pair this fresh, medium-bodied rosé with shrimp rissoles
