Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Made from Viura & Tempranillo grapes, this Spanish Rosé (Rosado) is light pink with summery ripe peach aromas. Refreshing peach, tart cherry and touch of lemon on a crisp, dry palate with lemony finish. Perfect for picnics.
Tasted April 2016
Emilie Ryan rated this wine as 82/100 with the following review:

An extra-dry rosé!
Presentation: Plain, clean, but somewhat understated
Appearance: Light salmon
Nose: Grapefruit, honey, flowers
Taste: White grapefruit, minerals, honey
Finish: White grapefruit, honey, minerals, and dry
Overall impression: A very dry rosé, with little sweetness. However, it paired nicely with antipasti, namely prosciutto and melon, as well as various cheeses and cured meats.
Value: 3.5/5
This attractive Spanish rose is made mostly with Viura, a white grape, and a splash of the red grape Tempranillo. Pair with mushroom risotto. - Community Wine Review.
