Item # 21021 750mL

Recaredo’s “Intens Rosat” has no pretenses of being an airy, innocuous quaffing rose. On the contrary, in its brilliant ruby color, in its volume and breadth in the mouth, and in its delicious succulence, it revels in its power and depth.

Staff Pick Notes

Recaredo Intens Rosat is a lively and delicious wine from the Penedès region in Spain.The Recaredo family, active in winemaking for a century, is committed in biodynamic farming. Monastrell and Garnacha are the local grapes used for this wine. They provide a lot of flavor and concentration to the final product. The must is macerated with the skin of the grapes,which is the reason behind its beautiful pink-reddish color. When you sip it, you can taste red berry, spice, and floral notes. The mousse is very present but soft at the same time. The bready yeast notes linger in your palate and invite you in for another sip. Delicious alone, but also excellent paired with white meats or pork dishes.

The distinguished Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas appellations are both characterized by significant percentages of Grenache, while in Tavel and Lirac the grape is used to make...

Pinot Noir

The Burgundy region of northeastern France is the historic home of the Pinot Noir grape, and is the source of the world’s greatest examples. Here one finds renditions of Pinot Noir that deliver power with finesse and grace, wines that have unimaginable depth of flavor, yet are perfectly balanced and ephemeral in the mouth - in short, wines that deliver all that Pinot Noir has to offer. Terroir, the concept that wines from a specific region have unique and identifiable traits, is intricately...

Monastrell

A Spanish synonym for the dark-skinned Mourvèdre grape.

Cava

Dry, delicious Cava is an excellent Champagne alternative. The best examples are aged on the lees (the spent yeast cells used in fermentation) and show complexity to rival that of the best Champagnes.
