Sierra Cantabria 2006 Rose(pink wine) Rioja wine. Attractive, delicate coral red color with pale pink highlights. Full finesse on the nose with a pleasant combination of red fruits and a discreet depth of roses. Luscious, full, and very fresh in the mouth where delicious, racy fruit flavors come through elegantly, highlighted by a silky, lively structure. A splendid rose that truly defends its noble origin.

STABILIZATION cold stabilized VINTAGE For the first part of the 2003 vintage growth cycle, the weather was marked by abundant rainfall and snow, providing an appropriate amount of water in all phenological stages. An absence of springs frosts and a good, though somehow irregular, fertility provided medium cluster size. Summer beginning with some storms and very sunny favored a good healthy and vegetative development. High temperatures during the end of July and first half of August provoked water stress delaying the maturation. Intermittent rainfall after August the 15th and beginning of September , accompanied by more moderate temperatures, favored an increase in the sugars levels and a delay in phenological maturation. Harvest takes place during the 3rd week in October and it is characterized by a intense selection of clusters with perfect healthy and ripeness levels and an increase in temperatures that carried out an increase in sugars and polyphenols.
