Marco Real Rosé | Navarra
2008
NEWThis is a real find and the best Rosé we have tasted from Navarra (where the best Spanish Rosé comes from). Wonderful and very affordable Grenache-based fruit-driven Rose that is highly addictive—try it and you will be buying several cases at a time. It has become the preferred Rosé of many of the Chateau owners in the Médoc! Excellent value for money.

The Press
"Spain might not be the first place you would associate with rose, but this—arguably the best the country makes—is quite clearly a steal at this price. Full of fruit flavours, particularly raspberry, it's very smooth, rich and well balanced. Perfect by itself as well as with shellfish and spicy food."—City AMOur tasting notes
Light Raspberry-pink bright colored Rosé. Bags of fruit flavours, very smooth and well balanced. It has a superb richness that is everything about Rosé and the summer. Perfect for all occasions, by itself and particularly good with shellfish and spicy food.Wine data

About Navarra
Boasting some of the most varied topography in Spain the DOC of Navarra is centred around the great bull-fighting town of Pamplona in the North of Spain. The vineyards run from the lower slopes of the snow capped Pyrenees towards the basin of the river Ebro. For a long time the wine trade in Navarra consisted of large cooperatives producing Grenache-based pinks for fairly local consumption but the last 10 years has brought with it great change. Grenache has now been eclipsed by Tempranillo, the grape made so famous in neighbouring Rioja, as the preponderant variety; there has been a movement away from cooperatives to small, family run estates turning out very high quality but affordable rosados and red wines that are finding an enthusiastic market around the world. One thing has remained constant: it is still The Spanish region for Rosé.
