Vermador Rosado Monastrell Bodegas Pinoso 2022

Vermador Rosado Monastrell Pinoso

The color of this rosé is clear, tending to salmon. The scent is pure and mainly dominated by red fruit, such as strawberries and raspberries, but there is also a hint of plum. The taste is dry and fairly powerful, with the red fruit clearly emerging.

Only the indigenous Monastrell grape variety was used for this rosé. After destemming, the grapes were slightly bruised and there was skin contact for 10 hours. The juice was then separated from the peels and the alcoholic fermentation took place at a temperature of a maximum of 16 degrees Celsius, which optimally preserves the aromas.

This rosé is drier in taste than you would expect in smell. Goes well with summer salads and various Flammkuchen.

Bodega de la Pinoso is a 100% organic bodega in the warm DO Valencia, near Alicante. A talented young team works on the wines under the inspiring leadership of Ana Amat. They combine modern and traditional techniques, work with low sulphite levels and use indigenous yeasts and autochthonous grape varieties such as monastrell. The subsoil and microclimate around the bodega are ideal for growing these grape varieties. They give the wines of La Bodega de Pinoso that little bit extra. An "alma de vida", Mediterranean soul as the Spaniards describe it.
