The 2015 Castillo de Viñas Rosado dry rosé has a fragrant nose of strawberry with notes of watermelon. On the palate it’s crisp, juicy and refreshing. The mid-palate has unusual depth and roundness, followed by a long and lively finish. Highly drinkable.
Super flexible whether sipped on its own or served with seafood, chicken, burgers, cold cuts or pork chops.
Castillo de Viñas (Castle of Vines in English), is all about “Classic Rioja, Rich and Balanced”. It reflects the best of classic Rioja, with its harmony and elegance, and just enough of modern Rioja, with its ample fruit flavors, for wine lovers to enjoy—glass after glass. The secret of Castillo de Viñas whites and rosés is the use of 5% lees aged wine in the blend, which adds richness and roundness to the mid-palate and satisfaction on the finish. The result is Rioja with an edge in quality at an affordable price.
