Terrior
The Manchuela region, located in southeastern Spain, benefits from high-altitude vineyards and a Mediterranean-influenced climate, with warm days and cool nights that help retain acidity in the grapes. The limestone-rich, clay soils contribute to the wine’s minerality and structure, while the sunny growing season enhances the natural fruit intensity of the Bobal grape.
Appearance
Vibrant coral-pink with hints of raspberry, bright and clear, reflective of its fresh, youthful style.
Nose
The nose is aromatic and fruit-forward, with notes of red berries like raspberry and strawberry, complemented by hints of watermelon, rose petal, and a subtle herbal undertone. The bouquet reflects the freshness and brightness typical of high-altitude Bobal.
Palate
On the palate, this rosé is medium-bodied with a lively acidity. Flavors of ripe strawberry, cherry, and pomegranate are balanced by a light mineral backbone. The wine’s dry profile and crisp texture create a refreshing structure, while a gentle herbal note typical of Bobal adds depth and complexity.
Finish
The finish is clean, crisp, and refreshing, with lingering red fruit and a subtle mineral quality that leaves a mouthwatering impression.
