“La Roza” takes the elegance of the fine red to a higher level, and has everything Dominio de Atauta looks for in our terroir wines: a quality out of the ordinary and a unique personality. In the nose we can feel that we are in the middle of that forest of holm oaks, surrounded by thyme and wild lavender. In the mouth we feel the tremendous elegance that we expect from that poor, sandy soil that covers our mouths with silk.

Tasting Note

Bigarreau cherry colour. Sensation of intense perfume and balsamic, transports us to the clearing of forest from where it comes, lemon thyme and wild lavender are mixed with the fruity aromas of ripe red fruit. In the mouth it is discovered as the "grand vin" that it is, taking elegance to the zenith, with a subtle structure but that seems eternal in the palate.

Ageing

Double selection (bunches and grapes) at the entrance of the winery. Vinification of plots with autochthonous yeasts in open stainless steel tanks of 1000L by means of bazuqueos. Malolactic fermentation and ageing for 19 months in second year French oak barrels.
