About this bottle

Vértice Cuvée Brut Rosé Vinho Espumante do Douro is een roze mousserende wijn uit de Portugese Douro, gemaakt door Caves Transmontanas. Zoals alle wijnen van het huis krijgt hij zijn tweede gisting op de fles, volgens de traditionele methode. De rosé wordt gemaakt van touriga franca, een blauwe druif die in de Douro vooral bekend is als portdruif. Het etiket noemt 12% vol.

For its sparkling wines the house deliberately chose the granite soils of the Cima Corgo, at around 550 metres altitude, far above the warm river bed. At that altitude the grapes ripen more slowly and retain more acidity, which is important for sparkling wine. Thus a region known mainly for port and red wine also became the home base of a house that focuses entirely on bubbles.

De wijn heeft een fijne bubbel. In de neus fris en jeugdig met tonen van vers rood fruit. In de smaak rond met een lange afdronk.

Why this works together

Chosen for the colour (sparkling), the country of origin (Portugal) and the alcohol percentage (12%). Carbonation washes away fat and salt. That is why a sparkling wine works well not only before the meal, but alongside it too.

Serve at 6 to 8 °C.

Toast the hazelnuts golden brown in a dry frying pan, rub off the skins and chop them coarsely.
Pat the scallops dry and season them with sea salt and pepper.
Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and fry the scallops golden brown for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side.
Melt the butter in a saucepan until it smells nutty brown and add the hazelnuts and a dash of lemon juice.
Divide the lamb's lettuce between the plates, place the scallops on top and spoon the hazelnut butter over them.
