Tasting Notes

These wines are a dream fulfilled for Sara Martinez-Lagos and Leon Florez, who combined have more than 25 years experience in the wine trade. They chose the name Latido de Sara - “Sara’s Heartbeat - in honour of Sara’s father who passed away a few years ago, and who always encouraged her to follow her own path, and to make her own wine.

The Latido de Sara wines are made in the oldest winery in Navarra Province - San Martin de Unx - who also have the best and oldest Garnacha grapes in the area. Many of the vines are planted on gentle hillside slopes (~650 meters in altitude), which are a unique characteristic of the Navarra landscape. Their wines are based mainly on Garnacha (Grenache) grapes, from low-yield vines over 30 years old, while the Crianza also includes Tempranillo. They use a small amount of local Navarra-oak barrels in the Crianza, to support the region and the landscape.

The overall philosophy of the range - white, rosé, and red - is to produce intensely flavoured and complex wines which faithfully reflect the nature and terroir of Navarra Province.

Garnacha Rosé is made from 100% Garnacha - from vines older than 30 years - grown on hillside slopes at an altitude of 650 metres, with predominantly limestone soil.

Only a few hours skin contact to extract colour and flavours, then fermented and aged in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to retain the freshness in the wine. Alc./vol.: 13.5%.

Tasting note: Bright pink colour. Aromas and flavours of fresh, red fruits - strawberry, cherry, and raspberry - with floral notes. Medium-bodied, well balanced, good acidity, with a refreshing dry finish.

Pairings: Great as a glass on its own, and will pair with seasonal dishes like turkey with all the fixings, burgers, pizza, Paella (and other pasta and rice dishes), hors d’oeuvres, grilled white meats, and seafood.
