It’s ROSÉ. It’s FRESH. It’s GREAT…
Almost on the brink of extinction, the Mandó grape variety has bounced back with the help of Pablo Calatayud at Celler del Roure – a pioneering biodynamic winery based in Valencia.
Mandó is a red grape and makes what we call a FRESH wine here at BOTTL with lots of energy, low tannin and high drinkability. So naturally we were impressed when we tasted this rosé made from the variety.
Harvested slightly earlier than you would for the red version to preserve acidity, the bunches are gently pressed to allow only but a gentle pinkish hue and then are stored in below-ground terracotta jars after fermentation for 6 months.
