We guarantee you’ve never tasted a Shiraz quite like this one – and you’re in for a serious treat.

Jaime Quendera is kind of a big deal on the Portuguese winemaking scene, having won over 1,000 gold medals in his 20-year career (not to mention, the prestigious “Best Red Wine in the World” trophy from Vinalies a few years back). Little wonder he’s the guy behind some of our most popular Portuguese wines.

What makes his latest creation so special? The sandy soils of the Fernando Pó vineyard. Under these arid conditions, vines are forced to root deep into the ground in search of water and nutrients. This stresses the plant just enough so that fewer grapes burst forth; but what do grow are so small and supremely concentrated, they yield a weighty, luscious wine that’s packed with deep, dark fruit flavor. Four months in French and American oak barrels adds just the right amount of baking spice character to complete the delicious picture.

Sporting a haul of critical acclaim – including a Grand Gold from the 2020 Concours Mondial du Bruxelles, Rocksand is guaranteed to impress.
