Rosado de Lágrima
A pale, fresh and mineral rosé made from the first pressings of Garnacha
Varieties
Garnacha Tinta
Vineyard
For this wine we use Garnacha Tinta from our vineyards in Finca Los Almendros, one of our estates in the Rioja Oriental subregion. We select specific plots to craft this rosé and the grapes are picked early to ensure the wine's fresh profile is guaranteed. The viticulture process aims to find the ultimate balance between freshness and complexity.
Vinification
Hand harvest of this grape protects its integrity. Direct and light pressing of the whole grapes, including the stems, is a natural extraction process, known as teardrop or lágrima in Spanish. This ensures minimum contact between the must and the skins, hence the resulting pale pink colour, as well as the freshness and long finish, characteristic of this wine.
Colour
Clean, pale pink colour with hints of coral.
Aroma
On the nose, it is complex and clean with white blossom aromas beautifully enhanced by hints of balsamic and ripe red fruits.
Palate
The palate is luscious, fresh and mineral, all perfectly balanced.
Food pairing
Serve this Provence-style wine chilled as an excellent apéritif and also alongside white meats, grilled fish and Asian cuisine.
