Bodegas Sonsierra – Seleccion 2014 – Rioja Alta Rosé

Deep coloured rosé wine more in the style of claret or claret, really deep pink. Quite intense nose here, resembling more like red wine like aromas; with red berries, cherry, plum, red currant. Quite full-bodied for a rosé wine, yet with the tannins already in balance. You feel a slight, slight hint of the tannic presence in the background. Quite creamy in terms of texture, with quite opulent red fruit, gives it a nice mouthfeel. Juicy and attractive fruit there, with red plum and cherry notes and it certainly has a good length as well, it keeps lingering. Really nicely made rosé wine, however not the classic aperitif style more of a full-bodied rosé for the meal or for other occasions.Creamy Texture, Red Plum, Cherry Notes
