About This Wine


Musa Noctuaria

Rosé of Garnacha

Smack in the middle of Spain and about 2 hours south of Madrid, the La Mancha region covers nearly half a million acres. It is the country’s largest and oldest winegrowing appellation, with plantings dating back to Roman times. Fruit planted in the region experience a hot and dry climate with steep temperature drops in the evenings, allowing natural acidity and flavor development. Varietals with dark skins that can withstand the environment do very well in the climate, including the Garnacha (Grenache) that our winemaking team chose to use for our Musa Noctuaria 2020 Rosé of Garnacha. A stunning salmon color, this wine is incredibly feminine. On its own, Garnacha is a bright fruit-forward wine with a medium body. When utilized for Rosé, the varietal gives off bold floral notes and tart red fruit flavors.

Wine Region


Spain

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
