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.’ |
