Mesta Organic Tempranillo Rosé, 2021

An approachable but serious rosé wine, displaying great purity and typicity for the noble Tempranillo grape, in a lighter, more elegant style than most Spanish rosés.Pale strawberry color, with intense and fresh berry aromas over subtle floral notes. Excellent concentration and a slightly off-dry finish, beautifully balanced by crisp acidity and a refreshing, savory note. Produced from our own, organically farmed vineyards in Uclés managed as an integrated ecosystem and studded with centenary oak trees. The region’s continental climate with sunny days and cool nights allows it to achieve intense fruit and excellent varietal definition while retaining remarkable freshness. Grapes are picked at night and in the early morning hours and shipped quickly to their state-of-the-art winery for deerstalking, light crushing, and vatting in stainless steel tanks. The wine underwent a short maceration of 7 hours on skins, before pressing. Alcoholic fermentation was stopped by chilling when the wine reached a perfect balance of fruit concentration, acidity, and slight residual sweetness

Pairings: A perfect summer drink and a highly versatile food wine with pasta, rice dishes, vegetables, and curries as well as stir-fried, spicier dishes.
