This delicious, full-bodied rosé is made entirely from the winery’s favorite grape variety, Grenache Noir. Harvested at full ripeness, Las Rocas Rosado showcases fresh fruitiness and intensity, evident both in its deep color and its distinctive aroma. It reveals notes of strawberry and raspberry, characteristic of Grenache in this region. A well-crafted, versatile wine that will pair beautifully with most of the summer dishes on the horizon... A sure bet!
