Gonzalo Celayeta Wines La Huella de Aitana Cuvée Zen (Rosé) 2024 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
From the heartland of Navarra's rosé production, and the old mountainous vineyards around San Marin de Unx comes this beautiful Garnacha wine (15% is Garnacha Blanca). The eight months in oak is barely noticeable nor the extended ageing in amphora. The wine is still youthful with crisp, elegance and a very refreshing, pearly, mineral edge. Rich and silky on the palate, yet balanced, modern and ethereal.
