From their UK agent, HN wines:
“Herdade do Rocim is an estate located between Vidigueira and Cuba, in the Lower Alentejo. It comprises 120 hectares, 70 of which are made up of vineyards and 10 hectares of olive trees. Since its inception in 2000, Herdade do Rocim has invested heavily in the vineyards, replanting vines and introducing new varieties. They are pioneers in ‘amphora wines’, following the ancient traditions of vinification in pots known as ‘Tahla’. The vineyard is cultivated manually and minimal intervention is used in the cellar, to produce fresh, elegant and mineral wines. In 2018, Herdade do Rocim was awarded Best Wine Producer by Revista de Vinhos.”

Press review:

“Lightish cherry red. Fragrant with dark-red fruit, a bit like cough linctus. On the palate, dry but juicy and with the finest of tannins. Fresh and a perfect wine to quench the thirst – you could happily drink it on its own. Light in body but not thin in flavour. Mouth-wateringly moreish if not particularly intense – it is not supposed to be. They suggest serving it slightly chilled. And it comes under the brand inspired by Dirk Niepoort: Nat’Cool.” Julia Harding MW on jancis robinson.com
