Rosé from Portugal? Absolutely. Altano Rosé comes from the Douro Valley and proves that Portuguese wine can be just as fresh, elegant, and organic as its French counterparts. Made by Symington Family Estates – well-known for their Port wines – Altano Rosé is produced in Portugal’s first LEED-certified winery. Sustainability and quality go hand in hand here.
Altano Rosé is crisp and refreshing, with juicy red fruit and a subtle touch of spice. Made from local Portuguese grapes, it offers a flavour that’s just a little different from the usual rosé – and that’s exactly what makes it interesting. It’s not a wine for special occasions. It’s the one you keep in the fridge, ready for whatever the day brings: a spontaneous aperitif, a sunny lunch, or a quiet evening on the balcony. Simple, easy, and always a good idea.
Easy food pairing?
Yes, really. Altano Rosé and tinned sardines make a surprisingly good match. The wine’s acidity cuts through the richness of the fish, while the salty umami brings out the fruit in the glass. Add some crusty bread and olives and you’re set.

Did you know?
A good tin of sardines ages just like wine. Over time, the oils mellow, the texture softens, and the flavour becomes richer. In Portugal, tinned fish has gone from pantry staple to gourmet item – think colourful packaging, retro recipes, and even restaurant menus.
