Rosé of Pinot Noir Champaña, Almacita

This hand harvested sparkling wine is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes from multiple vineyards within the Uco Valley. The nose is bursting with notes of strawberry, raspberry, rose petals, and fresh whipped cream that lead into a bright and fresh palate laced with red fruits and a touch of fresh baked bread. Tight bubbles, raspberry jam, and toasted almonds with fine chalky tannins round out this delicious wine.

Uco Valley is one of the newest wine regions in Argentina, started just in 1992 when Nicolás Catena Zapata planted the first vineyard, and is located in the southwest of Mendoza province, Argentina, along the Tunuyán River. Influenced by the Andes Mountains, the climate in this region is continental, with hot, long summers and cold winters. There are also harsh extremities in day and night temperatures, which is great for maintaining a good balance between sugar and acidity levels in grapes.
