2022 Cillar de Silos Tinto Fino Rosado (6 bottles)

Partner Winery Product - Please allow 2 - 4 days for dispatch.

With a bit of white in the blend (Albillo, Tempranillo Blanc and Verdejo along with Garnacha Negre feature as minor blend elements along with Tinto Fino), the old school local name for this style is Ojo de Gallo – chooks eye pink! After a very short maceration, the bleed of Silos Joven and some pressings wine is fermented long (25 days maceration) and cool (16 degrees). One of the extra-clever things about this wine, however, is that they use it to balance their soils for the estate wine. The Rosado doesnt just bleed the Tinto, as a selection it effectively bleeds the heaviest clays out of the main wine!

The joy of pink - beautiful light red wine pared back but not stripped down. Not for describing, it's pure drinking pleasure, dry, soft, deep and clear. The wine has a really lovely line and nice gentle roundness yet is very light in glycerol. Pale pink, effectively dry at 3 g/l.

This wine goes well with pork, rich fish, shellfish, vegetarian, poultry and as an aperitif.
