Tasting Notes

It presents an attractive, unusually intense rosé color, bright and luminous, evoking the tradition of the ancient Ribera clarets.

On the nose, it displays a very elegant aromatic expression dominated by stone fruits, such as apricot and peach, accompanied by delicate citrus notes and a subtle hint of rose petals. The aging is perfectly integrated, providing depth without masking the fruit. Elegant mineral nuances typical of limestone soils also emerge, along with delicate notes of hydrocarbons and a great sense of cleanliness.

On the palate, it surprises with its volume, silky texture, and extraordinary freshness. The fruit dominates again with hints of peach and apricot, supported by vibrant acidity and a mineral character that prolongs the finish. The aging provides structure and breadth, resulting in a wine with the complexity of a great white and the identity of a historic Ribera del Duero claret. The finish is long, fresh, and persistent.

Food Pairing

Perfect with rice dishes, fatty fish, seafood, white meats, poultry, Mediterranean cuisine, Iberian cured meats, semi-cured cheeses, and haute cuisine dishes where a rosé with structure and accompanying capacity is desired.

Recommended serving temperature: between 10 and 12 ºC.

Corimbo Rosado Reserva 2023 revives the spirit of the great Ribera del Duero clarets from a contemporary perspective. A rosé of enormous personality, refined and gastronomic, that demonstrates that elegance, depth, and aging capacity also have a place in great rosé wines.
