Pearson's Notes

Fermented in stainless steel and aged in Allier French oak, the 2008 Quinta de la Rosa has the structure of a Rioja and the spiciness of a Chateauneuf-du-Pape. There is plenty of ripeness here, but also a sense of restraint, which keeps the wine fresh and shows its potential for the future. Bold, cherry-infused red fruit evolve on the palate and artfully merges with the blackberry undertones and toasty earth and sweet tobacco notes.
