Campos Reales Canforrales Rosado

Canforrales Rosado Petit Verdot is produced by Bodegas Campos Reales, located in El Provencio, in Spain's Castilla-La Mancha region.

La Mancha is characterised by its continental climate, with hot, dry summers, cold winters and abundant sunshine. These conditions encourage the ripening of Petit Verdot grapes, allowing them to develop rich fruit flavours and expressive aromatic characteristics.

Made from Petit Verdot, a red grape variety traditionally associated with Bordeaux, this rosé highlights the grape's vibrant fruit character and natural freshness.

Rosé wines of this style are generally produced through gentle pressing or brief skin contact, followed by temperature-controlled fermentation. These methods help achieve the wine's delicate pink colour while preserving fresh fruit aromas and crisp acidity.

The wine is expected to display a delicate salmon-pink colour with brilliant rose-gold reflections, offering an elegant and attractive appearance.

The nose is fresh and expressive, revealing aromas of ripe strawberries, raspberries, red cherries and pomegranate, complemented by subtle floral notes and delicate citrus undertones.

On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied, with refreshing acidity and a smooth, lively texture. Flavours of fresh red berries, watermelon and citrus unfold harmoniously, creating a crisp and well-balanced drinking experience.

The finish is clean, refreshing and pleasantly fruity, showcasing the vibrant and approachable character of Petit Verdot rosé.

An excellent accompaniment to fresh seafood, particularly prawns, grilled fish, scallops and seafood salads.

It also pairs beautifully with Mediterranean cuisine, including light pasta dishes, grilled vegetables, fresh salads and Spanish tapas.

The wine's refreshing acidity and delicate fruit character make it particularly suitable for soft cheeses, such as fresh goat's cheese, Brie and mozzarella.

For Chinese cuisine, it pairs well with steamed fish, seafood dumplings, sweet-and-sour pork, lightly spiced dishes and Cantonese-style seafood.

It is also an excellent choice as a refreshing aperitif, particularly during warmer weather.
