Mateus Rosé Original is a rosé with a very appealing and bright hue. On the whole, it is a fresh and seductive wine with fine and intense bouquet and all the joviality of young wines. In the mouth, it is a well balanced and tempting wine, brilliantly complemented by a soft and slightly fizzy finish.

In the early 1970s, Mateus Rosé was the most popular wine in the world. It's Queen Elizabths', the Queen of England, preferred wine as of 1999 according to Glyn Middelton (producer): Secrets of the Royal Kitchen (documentary). BBC Television 1999.
Jimi Hendrix was photographed with it, a bottle appears on a Graham Nash album cover, and Elton John sang, “I get juiced on Mateus and just hang loose.

Vinification follows the traditional method for white wines and fermentation is carried out slowly, with no skins, in stainless steel vats at 16ºC controlled temperature. Fining is followed by cold-stabilisation, after which the wine is filtered and bottled. The whole process is done with extreme care, so as consistently to ensure Mateus unique style, colour and freshness.

Back in 1942, the Mateus Rose was first produced by Fernando van Zeller Guedes, as part of a new wine idea. The new idea was "a wine with a strong personality and unique taste presented in an original and innovative bottle." This led to the success of the company. Mateus Rose wine comes in a light, sparkling pink color and is presented in an original bottle that resembles the flasks used by soldiers during the First World War. This bottle is shorter compared to bottles of other wines.
