Gramona, 'Mart', Rose,

Country: Spain Region: Penedes

Varietal: 100% Xarel·lo Vermell

 Colour: Rosé Style: Sparkling

Producer: Familia Gramona

Description:

Mart is a wine made from a grape variety, native to the Penedés region, which
came close to extinction, but which has now bounced back with the strength of
the red planet: the Xarel-lo Vermell.
After harvesting by hand, the grapes are cold-macerated for 48 hours to obtain
an aromatic extraction and a light pink shade. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats that help preserve the primary aromas of the varietal. 

Tasting Note:
Rich and intense with a pronounced fruity expression. Refreshing citrus fruit, grapefruit skin, vineyard peaches, wild strawberries and a touch of Mediterranean herbs
such as rosemary and fennel. A subtle spicy backdrop of pink pepper completes the
bouquet

Food Matches: Spicy dishes such as those found in Japanese, Nikkei, Caribbean and South American cuisine. Rice dishes and seafood. Excellent for aperitifs.
