'També' Rosato Capichera 2024

The rosé "També" from the Capichera winery is a fragrant, fleshy, and aromatic wine made from Carignano and Cannonau grapes sourced from a single vineyard in the Palau area, in that part of northeastern Sardinia that overlooks the sea and sees Corsica in the distance. The vines, rooted in the Gallura granite rocks, are planted in lean and predominantly sandy soils of limited depth. The winery, now managed by the Ragnedda family for several generations, was one of the first to realize, starting in the '80s, the great potential of the wines from this territory, especially for aging when vinified using wood.

The "També" from Capichera is a rosé produced by vinifying the black grapes of the two most well-known and widespread native varieties of the island in white. The grapes, harvested at their peak ripeness, aim to best balance the perception of softness given by the sugars and alcohol with the acidic component, which softens it and provides freshness, are transported to the winery.and after a short cold maceration on the skins, they are gently pressed using a pneumatic press. The obtained must is fermented, without the skins, in stainless steel containers at controlled temperature. Then, the wine is racked and aged for a few months in steel before bottling.

The Rosé "També" from the Capichera winery presents itself with a pale pink color with coral reflections. On the nose, intense aromas of flowers appear, including rose and violet, red fruits, including currant, and citrus. On the palate, it is round, soft with a pleasant final savoriness that recalls the sea just a few meters away. The rosé from Capichera is a wine of good structure and complexity but of immediate pleasantness.
