rosado

You've never seen anything like it. This wine, prepared from the Tinta del país grape variety, will change the opinion you had about rosé wine. And it's because its cold maceration for 16 hours brings out all its aromas.

Look at: Intense strawberry red.

Sniff: Red fruits (strawberry, cherry, raspberry), but the array of aromas given off is almost infinite.

Its taste: It's balanced, fresh and flavourful and its mid palate will most likely convert you into a staunch fan of this rosé.
