A quick preview of the 2017 Rosado showed that it's a consistent, approachable, fresh and fruit-driven rosé. It's pressed directly with very little maceration, resulting in a pale rosé that is faintly floral. One of the characteristics of this rosé is that the aromas and flavors are very clean. 2017 is not an exception; there is good regularity in this bottling. They haven't really worked out the volumes for this 2017 yet, but there will be less bottles than in previous vintages.

This dry rosé is full and firm, with herbal and spicy notes framing cherry and berry flavors. Crisp acidity keeps this focused. More of a food wine than an aperitif. Drink now. 12,000 cases made, 6,000 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add
