ROSE WINE

This comes from a tinly vineyard of 80yo goblet-pruned, organic Juan García planted in gravel and granitic sand at 710 metres altitude.

This is a perfumed, incredibly interesting dry pink. Woody like last year’s old red apples, and indeed a tad cider sour, it’s delicately floral, with orchard smells, apple tree leaves, madder rose, hibiscus. The palate is incredibly fresh, brimming sweet-and-sour and ending with the chalky grip of stony minerality and neat fruit acid. The long, squeaky finish follows a gentle savoury fruit heart. Never strict, it’s light and has excellent linger and sliding release despite the utter absence of fructose or fill. The memory of raspberry nothingness in the mouth; a touch of wildness, only bordering on unhinged! SCOTT WASLEY, The Spanish Acquisition

Organic, biodynamic and vegan friendly, the Casa Lluch is from winemaker Bodegas Enguera in Valencia. Made from locally certified organically grown grapes the Bodega was founded in 1999 and fruit is sourced only from their own vineyards where they can maintain strict controls on the quality of fruit and it shows.

A ripping little Spanish rosado that will have you coming back for more. Strawberries and fresh picked raspberries with a little hint of peppery spice. Lovel lush fruit that flows a little too easy coating with crunchy red berries a plenty with a raspberry coulis finish. It's the simple things in life that are often the best and this rosado is one of those.
