Rosé Gramona Brut

INFORMATION OF INTEREST Rosé Gramona Brut 2016

TASTING NOTE

Colour: Clean, clear and bright. Intense raspberry pink with pink trim. Fine and persistent pearl. Very nice to see.

Aroma: The nose has great intensity, the red fruits are undoubtedly the most expressive of the variety, where raspberries, currants and strawberries reign in the first contact with the glass. Subtle floral hints of lavender blend with the discernible herbaceous hints of thyme.

Taste: Very fresh and lively entry into the mouth. It presents a very concise bubble that gives it a very good structure and forcefulness when it passes through the mouth. Acidity that lengthens the whole with a seductively refreshing finish.

MATCHING

Ideal como aperitivo y para todo tipo de tapas. Buen acompañante de platos más contundentes por su cuerpo. También para aperitivos y conservas. Debido a su estructura, los platos de cuchara -estofat, escudella, fabada, estofado de lentejas, gazpacho manchego, suquet de pescado, paella, arroz caldós- van muy bien con este cava.
