Ripa Rioja Rosado 2019, 60% Garnacha, 40% Tempranillo, 75cLBy Winebuyers

Ripa Rioja Rosado 2019 is a textural rose, with juicy berry fruits marked by a slightly savory, herbal edge. Complex and elegant, it has a long refreshing finish. Aged and matured in 225- and 500-litre oak barrels for 30 months, this wine has a more vibrant palate and a lower pH, with more freshness. It takes on a specific profile with nutty and spicy notes and a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon. This unisex wine is round and lush, with a dark colour, very different from the pale Provençal examples.
