41% Alicante Bouschet, 28% Touriga Nacional, 19% Syrah, 12% Aragonez
Bold, bright, and powerful. The 2019 Rowan Red captures the rugged yet refined character of a textbook Portuguese vintage. Notes of raspberry, black pepper, and anise unfold in the glass while layers of flavor unfold with every sip. Produced with the intention of ageing, this wine will mature gracefully for the next 10 to 15 years.
86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot
Comprised of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot & 3% Merlot, the 2019 Cabernet is a wine of elegant flavor, power and structure. Sourced from the hillside vineyards of Gandona Estate, the wine was crafted with the intention of aging. Dark fruits of blackberry, raspberry and cherry unfold in the glass and are enhanced by the underlying earthiness of hillside fruit. A finish of leather, black pepper, truffle and vanilla hold true in what is the most elegant wine in the Orison portfolio. Captivating now, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon will continue to develop in the cellar for another 15 years.
48% Antāo Vaz, 37% Roupeiro, 15% Verdelho
Elegant, textured, and charming. The 2020 Pipa White is a classic representation of Portuguese white wine. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in French oak for four months, the wine is serious enough for real foods but perfectly enjoyable on its own. Hand battonage, the process of stirring the lees in-barrel, uniquely influences the evolving texture and profile of the wine, highlighting a depth of mineral and fruit, clean-citrus, melon, and stone.

A wine of both texture and style, the 2020 Pipa Red looks to showcase the more delicate side of Portuguese red wine. Notes of spiced strawberry, raspberry, black pepper, vanilla and smoke unfold in sophisticated balance. Perfect for late summer and early fall, the wine is wonderful in its youth but should age gracefully for years to come.
