Historical Context
Lagosta (“lobster” in Portuguese) was a Portuguese rosé wine brand produced by Real Companhia Vinícola, one of Portugal’s historic wine producers. The brand is recognized by its lobster logo and distinctive green glass bottles wrapped in decorative raffia netting inspired by traditional fishing nets. These bottles were marketed primarily during the 1960s and 1970s and have become collectible for their unique packaging, colorful labels, and decorative presentation. This pair is offered as vintage display pieces only.
