Can Sumoi La Rosa Penedès DO 0,75 ℓ

What kind of wine it isLa Rosa di Can Sumoi is a fresh and straightforward rosé made from Sumoll and Xarel·lo grapes in the Penedès region. The wine stands out for its freshness and clear minerality, with a clean aromatic profile reminiscent of red fruits. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts preserves the purity of the grapes and offers a direct, easy-to-understand sip, ideal for those seeking an authentic and immediate rosé.Where it comes fromThe Can Sumoi vineyards are located on the slopes of the Montmell Mountains, at about 600 meters above sea level, in the heart of Penedès. The calcareous and raw soils endow the wine with a marked mineral and saline note. The altitude supports a slower ripening of the grapes and contributes to a fresh structure with gustatory tension that reflects the identity of the high hill vineyards.How it is producedAfter destemming, the grapes undergo gentle pressing in an inert atmosphere. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature with indigenous yeasts, without filtration or stabilization. Malolactic fermentation develops spontaneously and provides a balanced structure. The absence of barrels enhances the freshness and transparency of the aromatic profile.Tasting notesVisually, La Rosa shows a pale pink color with bright reflections. The nose reveals floral notes of rose petals and small red fruits, with a hint of flinty minerality. On the palate, it is slender and lively, with well-integrated acidity and a persistent finish recalling cherry, raspberry, and a light savoriness, true to the calcareous terroir.Food pairingsThis rosé pairs easily with grilled fish dishes, shellfish, and seafood salads. The saline component enhances dishes like suquet de peix, while the freshness matches well with Mediterranean octopus salads. Among cheeses, it is ideal with fresh goat cheese. Excellent also with grilled vegetable tapas, it enriches the table with lightness and versatility.When to serveIt is recommended to serve La Rosa at 8-10°C to highlight its fruity and mineral notes. The wine is best enjoyed young to appreciate the varietal freshness. It suits informal occasions such as summer lunches or aperitifs with friends and always offers an immediate and pleasant drinking experience.
