Characteristics:
Dry rosé, pale salmon of colour with violet hues. Aromas of red and blue berries, grapefruit and blood orange. Fresh and complex, with an intense and unctuous finish. Made from 100% Garnacha Tinta from 35 year old vines. The wine spent 6 months sur-lie in French barriques with weekly batonnage.

Food pairing:
Delicious with shellfish, 'meaty' fish like hake, turbot or monkfish, pairs with pork and poultry. Nice aperitif!
