Didier Belondrade made his name reshaping Spanish rosé, and this Castilla y León pink blends Tempranillo and Syrah. A high altitude continental site with wide day to night temperature swings keeps a generous, ripe wine fresh and balanced.
Description
Belondrade Quinta Clarisa is made in La Seca, Valladolid, by Belondrade y Lurtón, the project Didier Belondrade founded after helping to revolutionise the Spanish rosé market in the 1990s. It blends Tempranillo and Syrah grown in the V.T. de Castilla y León, where the climate is sharply continental with cold winters, late spring frosts and dry, hot summers. The wide diurnal range, with summer day to night swings that can reach extremes, is the key to the wine: warm days ripen the fruit fully while cold nights preserve the acidity and aromatic freshness that keep the higher alcohol in balance. The grapes take brief skin contact for colour before a cool fermentation in stainless steel that protects the primary fruit. The colour is a vivid pink. The nose shows ripe strawberry, cherry and plum with a peppery lift from the Syrah and a touch of white peach. The palate is generous and fruit driven, rounded and full but kept fresh by clear acidity, finishing dry. Serve at 10 to 12 degrees. It suits roast poultry, pork and richer fish.
