Rubentis Getariako Txakolina Hondarrabi Beltza Hondarrabi Zuri Rosé Blend
Shimmering orange-pink. Pungent cherry and red berry scents take on floral and spice nuances with air. Shows silky texture and good depth to the zesty red currant and bitter cherry flavors, which turn sweeter through the midpalate. Smoothly blends heft and energy and finishes long and nervy, with a hint of bitter orange pith adding final bite. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, June 2021)

May 28th, 2021Nothing spectacular about this wine, but I will say that as someone who doesn’t enjoy rosé normally, this isn’t terrible. Drinks more like a white wine than a rosé. Creamy, almost buttery front. Notes of underripe strawberry & tart raspberry. Citrus acidity that comes across as almost a lemon/lime or yellow/green apple. Good pairing rosé.
