Offley Rosé Porto
Offley Rosé Porto is a fresh and modern expression of Port, made from traditional Douro grapes and bottled at ~20% ABV. With vibrant strawberry and raspberry fruit, floral aromatics and soft sweetness, it’s delicious chilled, over ice or mixed into refreshing cocktails.
Produced by Offley, a Port house dating back to 1737 and now part of Sogrape, this rosé style brings lively summer character to fortified wine - approachable, fun, and perfect for relaxed drinking.
Offley Rosé Porto is a modern, fruit-driven style of Port made for light, refreshing drinking. Crafted from classic red Douro grapes with very short skin contact, it shows vibrant strawberry and raspberry fruit, floral notes and a soft, smooth sweetness. Lighter and fresher than ruby or tawny Port, it is designed to be enjoyed chilled, over ice or in cocktails.
Crisp, aromatic and youthful, Offley Rosé appeals to drinkers who enjoy rosé wine and sweeter aperitifs but want something unique and versatile. It’s ideal for summer serving, spritz drinks, desserts, or simple relaxed sipping.
Offley was founded in 1737 in London by William Offley and later became deeply established in Porto, earning a reputation for quality and accessibility. Since joining Sogrape Vinhos, one of Portugal’s leading wine companies, Offley has continued to combine tradition with fresh, fruit-forward styles.
The Rosé Porto category is relatively new, and Offley is considered one of the producers that helped popularize this style—balancing Port’s natural sweetness with bright berry fruit and refreshing acidity.
