“Another 50/50 blend that’s richer than most roses.
The bouquet is opulent with crushed raspberry and
strawberry aromas while the fruit is simple
voluptous on the ballet; creamy and ripe with enough
acidity to provide balance to the wine and a
refreshing finísh.”

Additional Information
Do you know
what’s hot in Spanish wines these days? Valencia.
Valencia is another wine region in Spain where
amazing things have been happening lately! It wasn’t
all that long ago that high quality Spanish wine
meant only Rioja. Then Ribera del Duero and Priorat
came onto the scene. Even though Valencia has a long
history of exporting, their wines are just coming
into their own. Producers like the growers at
Bodegas la Viña are making all the difference with
their commitment to consistent quality.
Valencia is
the new face of the Mediterranean. Growers have
centuries of tradition to build upon, and taking a
cue from the city’s cutting edge cuisine and
architecture they’re deftly incorporating the best
modern winemaking technology has to offer. You’ve
got the best of both worlds, old vineyards and
cutting-edge equipment to make the best wine – what
could be better?
