The Medina Rosé not to be missed

The summer rosé: light salmon pink in color and fine fruity scent with nuances of ripe fruits and herbs. Very suitable as an aperitif but also delicious with cold starters, the barbecue and fish.

Ripe fruits & deliciously spicy

Provencal rosé is becoming increasingly popular in the Netherlands. Sara Román, the winemaker of Castelo de Medina in Rueda, has also noticed this. This highly competent graduate 'oenologist' became the winner of the great Mundus Vini wine competition in 2013: her verdejo was voted the best Spanish white wine.

A maker of good white wine is usually also able to create high-quality rosé because the vinification is very similar. That certainly applies to Sara who makes a rosé in Provencal style.

In Spain, light salmon pink shades for rosé are virtually unknown, but the Grenache grapes from Rueda are perfect for this. A direct soft pressing of this blue grape variety gives the same salmon-colored hue as in Provence.

Compared to this, the Castelo tastes a bit juicier and smoother than the French original. It has therefore not become a copy thanks to the influence of the Ruedaterroir: this Spanish rosé has its own character. Sara and her team have made a beautiful wine from it and were awarded a gold medal at the International Wine Competition of Lyon.
