Ana Rola our “woman in wine” is born & bred in the Douro & since an early age knew that she wanted be a winemaker in the Douro Valley where she was raised. Here she can find originality, unbeatable terroir, knowledge & overcome the challenges in creating a wine that stands out from the crowd! The estate, Quinta de Remostias, remains from the XVIII century & is located in Peso da Regua, the center of Douro Valley. In 2014, Ana decided to leave her post as head wine maker at a large prestigious Douro winery to go it alone. She explains, after so many years doing what I love for others, I think it gets to a point that we think “why not do it for myself”.

Rola Douro Tinto shows the fruit of a vineyard with character in the soil and the terroir of Douro at its best.

50+ year old field blend of old vines traditional in Douro. Containing many varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinto Cao.

Vinification

Tasting Notes

Unique vibrant fruit in the nose show the Touriga Nacional grape with a breath of fresh air, you will find touches of white flowers & violets. Extremely elegant, vibrant & with a long finish which makes it a very well balanced ros on the palate.
