Marques De Caceres Rose 2022
Introduction
This rose wine originates from Spain, specifically from the Cenicero and Rioja Alavesa areas within the Rioja DOCa region. Founded in 1970 by Enrique Forner, Marqués de Cáceres is a family owned winery that was established with a vision to combine Spanish tradition with French winemaking expertise gained in Bordeaux. The winery's philosophy emphasizes the French concept of 'terroir' and innovation, having pioneered a move away from traditional oxidation and heavy oak use in Rioja to produce vibrant, fruit forward wines.
Wine Description
Marqués de Cáceres Rosado displays a luminous and pretty pale coral pink colour. The nose is delicate and floral, offering a bouquet of wild strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries layered with hints of aniseed, white blossoms, and fresh herbs like sage. On the palate, the wine is light to medium bodied and refreshing, delivering luscious summer flavours of red apple skins, watermelon, and citrus nuances balanced by a crisp acidity. It is characterized by its lively structure, refined elegance, and a classic dry finish with mineral undertones. This wine is typically a blend of 96% Tempranillo and 4% Garnacha Tinta, though compositions can vary slightly by vintage. The ABV generally ranges between 12.5% and 13.5%. While the winery employs sustainable practices and manual harvesting, this specific wine is not certified organic. The optimal drinking window is from release through two years to enjoy its youthful freshness.
