Don’t call it rosé. It’s pink, but it’s clarete. Many years ago Clarete was a common product of Ribera del Duero, not classically a rosé but certainly pink in color. Picaro Clarete is made by treading a mix of whole cluster red and white grapes bunches in tank followed by a couple days maceration then into oak vats for a slow fermentation by indigenous yeasts. After about 8-9 month in vat, the wine is transferred to neutral French and American oak barrels where it ages for 16 months before bottling. – Importer

Bodegs Ponce Reto 2019

Reto is the first white wine made in our winery. It is produced from 4 different vineyards between 40 and 60 years old. Grape varietal is Albilla and vineyard soil is mainly calcareous. Wine is aged for 8 months in old barrels 600-700 liter capacity. This wine is dominated by stony minerals, crisp citrus fruits and zippy acidity. This is cool climate white at it’s best. Notes of herbs and sea spray poke through on the crisp, clean, dry finish. Perfect alternative to top shelf Sancerre that has the potential to age, and improve, over the next 3-5 years. -Importer
