2023 Hispano Suizas Impromptu Rosé

The Impromptu Rosé from Hispano Suizas is a 100% Pinot Noir and is not your average 'summer wine' but a serious complex wine and extremely suitable for aging. The vineyards are located high at around 700-800 meters in the DOP Utiel-Requena. The altitude, the continental climate with its warm days but tempered by the sea and cool nights and the limestone plateau makes this a fantastic wine that scores unanimously high every year with wine critics (including best rosé in Spain).

In the glass this Impromtu Rosé has an elegant light pink color with aromas of red and tropical fruit in the nose with a subtle touch of vanilla and a nice tight mineral touch. In the mouth the wine is mouth-filling with a good acidity with flavors of red fruit and light dairy flavors in the finish and a mineral experience (lime/wet pebble). Very nice!

Do not serve this fine wine too cold. We actually recommend a drinking temperature of around 10-12°C for all more complex white and rosé wines - certainly not colder. Any precipitation that may be noticed in the wine is natural, because they process the wine with as little filtration as possible to fully appreciate its quality. Delicious with spicy dishes, sushi, rice with vegetables and chicken, soft cheese, omelette or fruit salad.

WINE MAKING IMPROMTU ROSE

A selection is made from the best grapes from our low yielding Pinot Noir vines. Only the best is allowed in this Rosé

The grapes are collected in special boxes of 15 kg. They only harvest in the early morning to keep the grapes at a low temperature until they arrive at the winery. Once at the winery, the full boxes are put in refrigerators where the grapes are kept for three days at a temperature of -10ºC.

They make a selection per box and then destem and crush the grape bunches. The resulting pulp is transferred to a refrigerated stainless steel tank where it is cold macerated on the skins, 0ºC, for about 2 hours. After this, the grapes are transferred to the pneumatic press for a soft pressing at a maximum of 0.5 bar. The must from the press is decanted for 24 hours after which we let only the clean must ferment in new American oak barrels with a capacity of 400L and at a temperature of 16ºC. Once fermentation is complete, the wine is stored in exclusive Galileo tanks (spherical cement tanks with a radiant surface) where it is allowed to mature for some time (without further influence of wood) until bottling.
