Queen of Kings Rosé, Brut - NV

750 mL
Item # 39044

A sparkling rosé that is just like Cava (but cannot be labeled as such because the wine is made just outside of the DO). It is dry on the palate yet full of mixed berries on the palate. Delicious and compelling this should be your pick to serve to before and during your next gathering. Excellent with starters but does work well with fried chicken as well.

Wine made from grapes grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides in the vineyard. Certified in the country of origin.


Staff Pick Notes

Cava means cave named for the deep cellars these Champagne-style sparkling wines are aged. Here the grape is Monastrell, which has a very earthy mineral character and that shows very clearly in this wine. Bright berried fruit is balanced by that classic earthiness of the Monastrell.

Spain

Central to the Spanish winemaking philosophy is the belief that wine should be released only when it is ready to be consumed, and not a moment before.

Alicante

The picturesque city of Alicante in the Valencia region of Spain has a vibrant tourism industry - which makes it all the more surprising that its wines are so little known outside of Spain. The region, lying on the southeastern border, produces a great variety of wines - from light and fruity whites to oak-aged Cabernet. It can also claim some of the best Moscatels in the country, as well as a unique rancio wine made from sun-dried Monastrell grapes called Fondillon.

Monastrell

A Spanish synonym for the dark-skinned Mourvèdre grape.
