EXPERT NOTES
A fresh rosé made from Merlot and Garnacha Peluda, a strain of the Garnacha variety that has lower alcohol and higher acidity. The wine shows a nose of red berries and dry straw, denoting a Mediterranean vintage. It has ripe and expressive flavors. A powerful rosé intended to be enjoyed alongside the finest foods. Only 812 bottles were filled in February 2021

WINEMAKER’S TASTING NOTES
Displaying a refined nose with hints of aniseed, rose petals and red fruit (pomegranate) aromas. It has a juicy, almost citric mid-palate with notes of grapefruit, flowers and red berries. A really elegant, full-bodied, well-balanced and nuanced wine.

TASTE WINE
Look, Smell, Taste and Conclude
VISUAL
You can tell the age of the wine by the color in the glass, also if you look at the legs of the wine you can determine quality aspects
SMELL
When you first start smelling wine, think big to small. Are there fruits? Think of broad categories first, i.e. citrus, orchard, or tropical fruits in whites or, when tasting reds, red fruits, blue fruits, or black fruits. Getting too specific or looking for one particular note can lead to frustration
The Grape
The grape variety is very important to understand a wine.
Grape varieties are considered the most important factor in differentiating a wine
IN YOUR TONGUE
You will be able to perceive that the flavor runs throughout the mouth. You will notice how it runs along the sides, which indicates that it is a quality wine due to its structure.
