Pago de Tharsys Vendimia Nocturna Garnacha 2023 – Organic Grenache Rosé Wine
Pago de Tharsys Vendimia Nocturna Garnacha 2023 is a limited-production organic rosé wine crafted by Pago de Tharsys under the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) Pago de Tharsys. It is produced in Requena (Valencia), more than 700 metres above sea level, in a unique plot with white limestone soils. Thanks to these conditions, we are able to preserve the freshness and aromatic richness of our Garnacha grapes.
Furthermore, you can discover more about our winery and wine tourism experiences on our website.
Organic Garnacha Vineyard on Limestone Soils
The Garnacha variety is grown on a small 0.7-hectare plot located in the southern area of our estate, on limestone “toba” soils rich in carbonates. This white soil, locally known as Albar, retains deep moisture and helps the vines withstand the dry summer. As a result, we obtain small, highly concentrated, and intensely aromatic grapes.
In addition, this organic rosé wine is certified by the European Union and grown entirely without herbicides or synthetic chemical products, respecting both the vineyard and the environment.
Night Harvest and Lees Ageing
Harvest takes place at night, in September, specifically to preserve grape freshness and prevent oxidation. The grapes are hand-picked in 10 kg crates and processed at the winery in less than 15 minutes.
Following that, the free-run must is extracted after 4 hours of cold maceration in the press. Fermentation occurs partially in stainless steel tanks and later in second-use French oak barrels. Subsequently, the wine ages for a total of 3 months on its lees: 2 months in barrel with bâtonnage and 1 month in stainless steel.
Tasting Notes – Night Harvest Organic Rosé
- Appearance: Pale pink colour, bright and clean. Fine, slow tears with an oily texture.
- Nose: Floral notes of cherry blossom and stone fruits such as nectarine and apricot. As the wine warms, pink grapefruit, fresh cherry, sage, and oregano aromas gently emerge.
- Palate: Clean, fresh entry with good volume and a creamy texture. Excellent acidity highlights flavours of red fruit and slightly unripe cherry. Finally, a persistent finish reveals soft lactic notes and toasted macadamia nuts.
Perfect Pairing for this Organic Rosé
This wine pairs perfectly with seafood such as grilled red prawns or scampi, lobster stew, or seafood rice dishes. Moreover, it is an excellent match for roast white meats.
To enjoy its full potential, serve between 6 and 8 °C in a medium-sized glass with a slightly narrow rim.
Wine with Night-Harvested Freshness
Therefore, Vendimia Nocturna Garnacha 2023 is a signature rosé wine that expresses freshness and character, the result of artisanal night harvesting and respectful winemaking. In short, it is ideal for those seeking high-quality, characterful organic wines.
