It was produced exclusively with Garnacha and for the first time in this vintage. It's so pale it looks like a blanc de noirs, because in the cooler zones of Najerilla and Oja valleys where they source the grapes, the Garnacha does not have a lot of color. The destemmed grapes are pressed, and the free run juice (40% of what comes out of the press) is put to ferment in a combination of 500-liter oak vats and small stainless steel tanks. The wine was kept with the lees until April, some six months, during which time they were stirred twice per week, working it almost like a white. It has a very subtle but faintly leesy nose, perfumed and elegant. The palate reveals great balance with a gentle texture, very integrated acidity, clean and long with a slight bitterness in the finish. A very good rosé. Rating: 91+\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e WE90\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Wine Enthusiast\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e If you are of the school that says rosé from Provence is the world's gold standard, then give this excellent newcomer a try. Brief skin contact has created a light color and sense of elegance on the nose and palate. Flavors of cantaloupe and peach are lightly sweet but cut by ample acidity. Drink as soon as possible to capture this wine's fresh essence. Editors' Choice\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Muga","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43385069011168,"sku":"106310","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/muga-flor-de-muga-rosado_1.jpg?v=1663886841","url":"https:\/\/yianniswinery.com\/products\/flor-de-muga-rosado-2016","provider":"Yiannis Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
