The Mateus brand was established in 1942 by Fernando Van Zeller Guedes. The brand is most famous for its Mateus Rosé in the iconic flask-shaped bottle, designed to replicate soldiers' hip flasks in World War I. Today the wine making is looked after by Diogo Sepúlveda, who has 15 years of experience including work in the USA, Australia and France.

Although the grapes are sourced from throughout Portugal, the Mateus style is based primarily on the Baga grape, which is the principal variety in the Bairrada region, where the winery is situated.

Fermentation is carried out slowly, with no skins, in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of 16ºC. Fining is followed by cold stabilisation, after which the wine is filtered and bottled. A blend of Baga, Rufete, Tinta Barroca and Touriga Franca, the wine wears its 15 grams of residual sugar well, as the balance with the acidity is cleverly done to give a wine that, if tasted blind, would surprise many.
