Summer is upon us, bringing with it the search for the ideal wine to accompany our meals and moments of relaxation under the sun. Rosé wines have gained popularity during this season, and a Monastrell rosé stands out as an ideal choice. Its fresh, fruity, and well-balanced profile makes it the perfect option for enjoying on warm summer days.
Monastrell rosés offer a wide range of colours, from the more traditional, deeper shades to those intended for markets that prefer a pale pink. This wine presents an explosion of intense and elegant aromas. On the nose, Monastrell rosés reveal fruity notes of strawberry, blackberry, and liquorice, complemented by floral hints that add an additional dimension to their bouquet.
Refreshing and Balanced Flavour
On the palate, Monastrell rosé is fleshy, flavourful, and fresh, with a fruity and intense finish that leaves a persistent and very pleasant sensation. These wines are light yet full of flavour, balanced in acidity, with a gentle sweetness that makes them irresistible. Each sip offers a complete sensory experience, from its lively entry to its rounded and luscious finish.
The Monastrell Variety: A Treasure of Viticulture
The Monastrell grape has always been considered exceptional for the production of rosé wines. Our vineyards, selected for producing these rosés, are usually found in cool microclimates, with longer maturation cycles, located at higher altitudes and well ventilated. These conditions allow the high daytime temperatures to be moderated, achieving an ideal balance between day and night temperatures, favouring the concentration of fruity aromas.
Ideal for Any Occasion
Over the past two decades, Monastrell has proven its ability to produce high-quality rosés. These wines are ideal for pairing with a wide range of summer dishes, from fresh salads to rice dishes and seafood. The freshness and balance of Monastrell rosés make them perfect for any time of the day, whether it’s an outdoor meal or a relaxed afternoon by the pool.
