Availability: In stock
Produced by bodega Herència Altés, Herència Altés Celastrina Rosado is a blended Spanish rosé wine made basically from Grenache and a small percentage of Syrah.
Situated near Batea, DO Terra Alta, the organically farmed vineyards have very poor soils. The area has a Mediterranean climate with a Continental influence and great temperature differences between daytime and nighttime.
Hand-picked at an early stage to preserve the acidity, once in the cellar the grapes were gently pressed, avoiding a prolonged skin contact between the must and the skins. Then the free-run juice was spontaneously fermented with wild yeasts in stainless steel tanks. After that, the rosé wine Herència Altés Celastrina Rosado 2021 was aged for 3 months on its lees with periodic stirrings to give the wine a creamy mouthfeel.
Before bottling, this rosé wine from Terra Alta was filtered and clarified.
This is a food-friendly organic rosé wine. Pair with pasta, finger food, tapas, sushi or pizza.
