Production of Mediterraneo Rosat Catalunya DO – Synera

The grapes for Mediterraneo Rosat Catalunya DO – Synera come from selected vineyards in the Catalunya DO appellation in Catalonia. The Mediterranean climate, with warm, sunny days and cooler nights, gives the berries intense ripeness and aromatic finesse. Gentle hills, the influence of sea breezes and a combination of limestone and clay soils create an ideal foundation for fresh, fruit-driven rosé wines.

The vines take root in sparse, well-drained soils, which naturally reduce yields and concentrate the aromas in the grapes. Cabernet Sauvignon brings structure and fine spice to the blend, while Garnacha Tinta contributes an abundance of red berry fruit and Mediterranean character. The interplay of these varieties creates a harmonious profile with a clear regional signature.

The grapes are carefully harvested by hand. The berries are transported to the winery in small containers to preserve their full aromatic potential. Gentle pressing follows, with only the finest must being used for this rosé wine. Controlled skin contact gives the wine its attractive color and enhances the fruity bouquet.

Mediterraneo Rosat Catalunya DO – Synera is matured in cool stainless steel tanks. This temperature-controlled fermentation preserves the freshness of the fruit and emphasizes the clarity of the aromas. Oak deliberately plays no role in this rosé, allowing the pure fruit of strawberry and raspberry to take center stage. Maturation on the fine lees lends the wine additional creaminess and a smooth mouthfeel.
