Description
In a nutshell:
A fresh, vibrant and fruity biodynamic red from the hills near Valencia.
The lowdown:
Celler del Roure have become a byword for quality in the Valencia region and are a tireless champion of indigenous varieties and low intervention viticulture. Grown biodynamically the principle grape in their Safrà wine is Mandó, a nearly extinct variety but one that can create wines with real depth and complexity. Celler del Roure wanted Safrà to be a wine of enjoyment full of energy and vibrancy and so the Mando grapes were harvested before full ripeness and vinified with indigenous yeasts, with a third being whole bunch fermented which helps provide a real juicy fruitiness. The wine then rests for six months in traditional large earthenware jars.
Really fresh and bright red fruit aromas with herby and earthy touches. The palate is medium-bodied and has that fresh, young and sense of fun quality yet with grippy tannins, good depth of flavour, lively acidity and a good finish. Highly enjoyable wine from this very good producer.
When to drink:
Versatile wine that works as well with lunch as it does with light suppers. Try with a variety of Mediterranean tomato based dishes, cold cuts and salads, or grilled seafood.
Suitable for Vegans, Biodynamic
