A thirst-quenching hero hailing from the warm interior of Spain, specifically Castilla La Mancha. This region lacks the fame of giants like Rioja, Priorat, Ribera del Duero, and Rueda. Yet, Castilla La Mancha holds a record: it is the largest wine region, not only in Spain, but in the entire world. A few decades ago, this led primarily to many mass-produced wines, which were not particularly inspiring. With increased consumer demands, the quality of La Mancha wines has also risen dramatically, including those from Marqués de la Carrasca. These are superb wines that closely match the quality of both Spain and La Mancha.
The wines of Marqués de la Carrasca
These Spanish delicacies are made by the larger winery Bodegas Lozano, of which Marqués de la Carrasca is a key part. It was founded over a hundred years ago by Juan Ramón Lozano in the heart of La Mancha, about a two-hour drive southeast of the Spanish capital, Madrid. It began as a passion. Juan Ramón wanted to make wine from his own grapes on a small scale. However, this grew into one of La Mancha's greatest successes. The third generation is now in charge of the day-to-day operations, and the fourth is eager to take over.
The smell and taste of Marques de la Carrasca Tempranillo Grenache Rosé
The vineyards are primarily dedicated to characteristic Spanish grape varieties. The most striking are undoubtedly Tempranillo and Garnacha, jointly responsible for Marques de la Carrasca Tempranillo Grenache Rosé. Their balanced interpretation of this Spanish rosé creates a sensational aroma and flavor. Think crisp strawberries and soft raspberries. But it also has a fresh and spicy note, like grapefruit and pepper. This will keep your interest in this rosé ever-present.
