Recaredo Intens Rosat Brut Nature 2021
HK$ 423.94
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The intense rosé, neatly named 2021 Intens Rosat, has a dark pink color and is a wine that has grown in seriousness in the last few years and reached a new peak in 2021. It was produced with a blend of 88% Monastrell and 12% Garnacha from two small vineyards from the family. It macerated for six hours and had a short aging in oak and was produced with the traditional method of second fermentation in bottle and with a long aging, 31 months (they hope to extend it to 40 months). It has a primary nose with red berries and herbs, some toast and yeasty and leesy notes. What I liked the most is the serious and chalky palate—bone dry and with echoes from the limestone soils—and the sapid finish. 13,900 bottles produced. It was disgorged in October 2024.

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.
