An excellent Passover wine. It is not very complex, but it is reasonably structured and feels good on the tongue. I had the 2016.

This wine of Spain colors up like cranberry juice. It has an extremely earthy and savory element to the nose. It's more than just an herbal “stemminess” - it's a full-on, nose-in-the-furrow dirtfest. There are cherry and strawberry notes, of course, but they live under the ground. The palate plays right along with the game, hiding its bright red fruit underneath an umami blanket. It's not an approach I find much in a rosé, even one that’s Garnacha-based. Nice acidity, and full in the mouth. Pair this with a salami sandwich, cashews or tapas if you're feeling adventurous.
