Julia Harding MW, Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages
17/20 - Awarded the best rosé in Andalucia, and just half a point from being the best rosé in Spain! ‘Very pretty deep orangey pink. Intense aroma of orange and apricot, although no association of sweetness with that. There's a hint of something floral and spicy. Salty/herbal too. So fragrant and complex before you have even put it in your mouth. Wonderfully fresh, with the tiniest tannic grip giving it extra gravitas. Tastes dry and full-fruited, then there's that fresh saltiness on the long finish. A terrific dry rosé.’
Mario Caravadossi, Verema.com
‘…fragrant violets and roses plunge us into nostalgic scents of Andalusian gardens ... As the wine is oxygenated it shows elegance and depth... On the palate, dazzlingly fresh, with a refined but vibrant elegance. ... floral and citrus aromas is masterfully strung beside salt memories in ... an almost perfect balance. .. a lengthy finish leaves us thinking of sunset on the sea horizon and floral aromas, wrapped in salt, carried on the cool breeze.’
FAQs
Dark chocolate pairs best with wines that have the structural intensity to match its bitter cocoa and tannin character without being overwhelmed. Fortified wines are the strongest match: aged Tawny Port with its dried fig, rancio, and roasted nut character is the classic pairing. Banyuls from the Roussillon, a naturally sweet Grenache based wine, is the benchmark French equivalent. A full bodied, fruit forward red such as Zinfandel or Amarone can also work, where the ripe dark fruit and spice complement the chocolate.
Many wines use animal derived fining agents during production to clarify and stabilise the liquid before bottling. Common fining agents include isinglass (derived from fish swim bladders), gelatine (bovine or porcine), casein (milk protein), and egg whites (albumin). These are added to bind suspended particles and removed before bottling, but trace quantities may remain. Vegan wines use alternatives including bentonite clay, activated carbon, or pea protein. Checking the Barnivore database or looking for a vegan certification on the label is the most reliable approach.
