  • Singular Origin
    A different kind of rosé born in San Vicente de la Sonsierra and Labastida (Rioja), from two plots with limestone-clay soils and climatic conditions shaped by spring frosts at higher elevations. Manual harvest and full respect for the grape.
  • Unconventional Blend
    A stunning and special combination: 50% Graciano, 30% Garnacha Blanca, and 20% Garnacha Tinta. A structure that defies categorization and results in a rosé with the soul of a white wine.
  • Clean and Precise Winemaking
    Fermented in stainless steel and aged for 6 months on lees, with no oak contact. Bottled in April 2022 to preserve its fresh, subtle, and well-defined essence.
  • Sensory Profile
    Austere, fresh, and very elegant. Light aromas of pomegranate, red currant, and parched flowers. On the palate, it’s tense and ethereal, with vibrant acidity and a subtly saline finish.
  • Age-Worthy Rosé
    While approachable now, this is a wine with structure to develop. Enjoy it today or let it refine until 2026.
  • For Those Who Understand Subtlety
    Perfect for those who seek character-driven rosés, free of frills, with a minimalist approach. Technique, terroir, and emotion in every glass.
