The very young 2023 Rosado was bottled days before I tasted it. It comes from a dry and warm vintage with an early harvest and lower yields and therefore with the need to sort and discard. This has a bright pink color and an expressive and clean nose, perfumed, floral, and it has a tasty palate, with good ripeness, 13% alcohol and great balance. It finishes dry and is so easy to drink... 90,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2023.

The faintly reductive 2021 Rosado is a bright pink produced with Garnacha from dry-farmed vines. It feels a bit young and might need some more time in bottle (or an energetic decanting) to get rid of the reduction, because it has juicy fruit and some fresh floral notes and feels balanced and tasty. It's 13% alcohol and has some very fine tannins and a tasty finish. Unbeatable price. 95,000 bottles produced. It was bottled unoaked in December 2021.

Since last year, their rosé is 100% Garnacha. The current 2019 Rosado, always an incredible value, has some floral and herbal aromas and, dare I say, is varietal, more serious and cleaner than the majority of rosés in this price range. The palate is medium-bodied, with balance and clean and focused flavors, not terribly complex but pleasant, fresh and easy to drink. Great value. 95,000 bottles. It was bottled in May 2020.

The elegant pale rosé 2018 Rosado is now 100% Garnacha, a grape that had a higher percentage in the blends of the last few years until it turned into a varietal wine in 2018. It's perfumed, clean and harmonious, with nothing to envy similar wines from Provence. The palate is dry and serious, with good balance and focused flavors. Very good value. 95,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2018.

The perfumed and peachy 2017 Rosado was bottled in October 2017 with more Garnacha in the blend than in previous years, almost a blanc de noirs, without skin contact. It has a pale bright-pink color, a fruit-driven nose, with notes of berries and a hint of roses, and a very tasty palate with a pleasant bitterness in the finish. 85,000 bottles.
