Lancers Rose
Lancers was launched in 1944, after Henry Behar visited Europe with the objective of finding a rose wine that could be particularly appealing to the American palate. His search ended in Portugal, more precisely the Palmela region, in the famous colours of Jose de Fonseca. There he found the moderately sweet, sparkling rose he had been looking for. The wine was christened “Lancers” in homage to one of Mr Bahear’s favourite paintings “Les Lanzas” by Voltzquez. Presently Lancers continues to be a case study for success, having a world wide presence and being on of the Portuguese wines most sold around the world.
Clear, bright pink with a salmon hue. Fragrant, with scents of fresh berries. Delightfully approachable style with lively fruit flavours that extend into the finish.
