Protocolo Rose 2013

50% Tempranillo, 50% Bobal grown in La Tierra de Castilla in La Mancha, this rosado is the easy drinking rosé made by the talented Eguren family -famous for a number of estates including Sierra Cantabria, San Vicente, and Teso la Monja among others. Tempranillo imparts the ripe fruit we love but its the Bobal (incidentally among the grapes with the highest levels of resveratrol) that bears its fresh scents and juicy acids -yielding a rosé with notes of raspberry, strawberry and citrus fruit all coming together into a fresh glass of wine.

Expert Review

88 Points - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 13
"(50% bobal and 50% tempranillo): Bright orange-pink. Vibrant aromas of strawberry and raspberry, plus a hint of citrus pith. Racy, finely etched red berry flavors provide good fruity appeal and palate coverage. Uncomplicated but extremely easy to drink, not to mention an outstanding value. Finishes with good clarity and cut, leaving a bitter orange zest note behind."
