Ca Rosario is the wine with the greatest structure in the Cos a Cos range. A 100% Monastrell single-varietal from the plot 'La Viña de Rosariet', at 400 metres altitude on the shaded side of the Serra del Torrater, Ontinyent. Trellised vines 20–30 years old, strictly dry-farmed, on calcareous-clay soil. Hand harvest, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, 6-day maceration and traditional manual wooden press. Aged in stainless-steel tank, without oak, so that the Monastrell arrives clean with all its fruit and the nerve of altitude. No additives, no added sulphites, unfined and unfiltered.

Fruit
Tannins
Acidity

Ripe picota-cherry red, medium-to-deep, clean with the noble haze of natural wine. Spicy, balsamic nose: plums and blackberries, black pepper, clove, fennel and a background of damp Mediterranean woodland. Powerful but balanced palate, with acidity that brings freshness and present but polished tannin thanks to the brief wood ageing. Long, meaty, wild finish.
