One of the most notable wines in its catalog is Dahlia, a rosé wine that embodies the essence of the winery: sustainability, elegance and quality.
With an alcohol content of 12.5%, this wine is made with 100% Garnacha Tinta, a variety that gives it its own and distinctive identity.
The Dahlia comes with a very pale pink color that is obtained from a very gentle and direct pressing of the black grape. No maceration is carried out with the skin and the extraction of tannic and color is minimal, obtaining an expressive and delicate wine that anticipates great complexity. On the nose, it offers delicate aromas of rose and jasmine, an invitation to spring that unfolds in each glass. On the palate, it reveals itself to be fresh and floral, with an elegance that is intertwined with notes of red fruits and a persistent acidity that makes it a memorable wine.
The recommended pairing for the Dahlia is as versatile as its character: ideal for appetizers or to accompany soft rice and fish or seafood recipes. It is suggested to serve it at a temperature of 10ºC to maximize its expression.
But Dahlia is more than a wine; It is an experience, a happy conversation, a genuine smile, a sunset by the sea. It is a reflection of the philosophy of U MES U, which seeks not only to produce wines, but also to create unforgettable moments and memories.
Precisely, Dahlia is part of the “Rosa, Rosae, Rosado” Selection of Gourmet La Vanguardia. She is accompanied in this pack by the XV and BORN ROSÉ Barcelona wines. You can purchase this pack at gourmetlavanguardia.com.
