Recaredo Intens Rosat Brut Nature 2020
HK$ 390.18
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Intens Rosat was produced exclusively with Monastrell (as they couldn't use the Garnacha that was lost in that year of mildew) that macerated with the skins for six hours and aged in oak barrels for a short time. It was put to referment in bottle closed with a cork with concentrated organic must and was disgorged after 31 months. This is their youngest wine, and it has an intense pink color (a little paler than in earlier vintages). But going beyond the color, it has the subtle aromas from the red grape (translucent red berries) and is a gastronomical rosé with a balanced palate and abundant small bubbles. It has 11% alcohol, a pH of 3.21 and 4.5 grams of acidity from the year of rain and mildew (and Covid!) that delivered very low yields. Very tasty. 16,000 bottles produced.

Description
Recaredo Intens Rosat Brut Nature is a dry rosé wine, defined as lively and sweet. It is made from various types of grapes, of which 40% are Pinot Noir, 40% Monastrell and the rest Grenache.
These grapes are grown in the vineyards of the Cal Mota estate located in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, in calcareous soils, which determines the particular flavour of the fruit when it is processed.
A brut nature rosé cava will captivate you in the gastronomic field, as this is how its producers define it, although it is also ideal if you are interested in tasting the particularity of its depth and the elongated permanence in the mouth.
Elaboration
Like all the wines from this winery, the producer tries to keep the use of chemical products to a minimum. To this end, the grapes are harvested by hand.
After the fruit is processed, the must is macerated with the skins, which is the reason for the red colour of this wine.
It is then subjected to a second fermentation with ecological techniques, respecting the philosophy of the producers, who maintain the idea of making terroir wines with flavour and texture that represent the identity of this wine-growing region.
The ageing period of this wine is long, and is carried out in the bottle, using a natural cork stopper. The final filtering is carried out in desks, and then the wine is disgorged by hand without freezing.
Taste
This wine has a flavour that denotes the presence of red fruits with balsamic tones and floral notes. Its cherry red colour with purplish reflections does not go unnoticed in the glass. In terms of texture, it is defined as creamy and sparkling.
A wine with fine bubbles
Recaredo Intens Rosat Brut Nature is one of the sparkling wines of this winery, but its bubbles are faint in the mouth. It is ideal for pairing with carpaccios, tartar dishes and rice dishes.
