Product Description
Details
Produced by Josep Grau through his company Josep Grau Viticultor, the wine Regina is an atypical and interesting Spanish rosé wine from Montsant, produced along the lines of the famed southern Rhône rosés from Tavel.
The wine is made from a blend of 90% Grenache and 10% White Grenache. Both come from Finca Les Comes, an organically farmed half hectare parcel composed of slate and limestone soils, planted with 50-year-old vines.
All of the farming procedures were performed manually, from harvesting to bottling and labeling. Spontaneous fermentation took place in 600-litre Austro-German oak barrels using indigenous yeasts. Then, the wine was aged on its lees for 7 months.
Going beyond the low-profile, light-hearted rosé wines that dominate the market, the wine Regina 2023 sets a new paradigm for Catalan rosé wines because of its noteworthy complexity.
Production of this Crianza rosé wine from Montsant is very limited.

If Spain had 5 more rosé wines like this, I'd rarely drink Provence rosés. This is simply phantastic. The smell, the flavours, the acidity... Everything!!
