Marqués de Cáceres Rosé 2015
Rioja, SpainThis generously juicy rosado is tempranillo-based, with a splash of four percent garnacha, and sourced from the slopes of Cenicero and Rioja Alavesa from 15-20 years old vines. The deeper hue reflects the skin time and bleeding of this rosé before fermentation in stainless and prevention of MLF. Primary raspberries, red currant, cherries ride a wave of gushing acidity to a spiced, crunchy but sun warmed finish. This is meant to be drunk young and fresh, so this 2015 is ready to go now, with a chill, and chorizo or vegetable paella.Tasted: 26 April 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $19.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
