Intens Rosat Brut Nature 2021

Wine Description for Intens Rosat Brut Nature 2021 by Recaredo

Colour & Appearance

Luminous chimney red with bright and rusty reflections. The perlage displays itself restrained and even – a deliberate restraint that corresponds to the character of this unusual rosé sparkling wine.

Nose

Original and unconventional: Initially rusty and bloody, then a kaleidoscope of red forest fruits – rosehip, wild strawberry, wild raspberry, redcurrant, morello cherry and a hint of rowan berry. Nothing sweet, instead earthy, herbal, woody. Baked red fruits meet Mediterranean herbs, undergrowth, wet chalk and damp twigs. In the background a subtle shortbread note – structural, not yeasty.

Palate

Salinity dominates: stony, linear, straightforward. The brilliant freshness is carried by a mineral-saline backbone. Fruit remains discreet, threaded through with forest notes and autumnal coolness. The medium-strength acidity is precisely integrated and lends the wine its clear definition.

Finish

Lingering mineral with salty freshness that resonates. No opulence, but rather substance and depth – a wine that takes its time.

Grape Variety & Vinification

88% Monastrell (Mourvèdre), 12% Garnatxa Negra (Grenache). At least 30 months on yeast lees under natural cork, manually disgorged. Bottled as Brut Nature without dosage – uncompromisingly dry, as Recaredo’s philosophy demands.

Food Pairing Suggestions

With grilled tuna, pink roasted lamb with herbs, duck breast with wild mushrooms or air-dried ham. The salty minerality harmonises beautifully with oysters or sea urchin.

Special Features

An independent, uncompromising Cava that defies every convention. Not a crowd-pleasing fruit bomb, but a wine with identity and provenance – for lovers of authentic, unvarnished sparkling wines with Mediterranean character.
