Made with 100% Bobal grapes from Spain’s Utiel-Requena region \u2014 the grape’s heartland, just inland from Valencia \u2014 this perfectly salmon-pink ros\u00e9 is vibrant, crisp and refreshing, full of juicy raspberries and ripe cherries with a hint of citrusy zest.<\/p>\n
Bobal thrives in the region due to its continental climate with Mediterranean influences, creating hot, dry summers and cold winters along with a significant diurnal temperature variation. These conditions are ideal for Bobal, helping the grapes ripen fully while retaining good acidity and developing complex flavours.<\/p>\n

It’s also vegan, has lower levels of alcohol, comes in a lightweight bottle, and is exceptional value for money at only \u00a35.49, exclusively from Aldi.<\/p>\n
