The Story Behind the Wine
Produced at Bodega Pago de Cirsus in Navarra, this rosé embodies the estate's dedication to the vino de pago philosophy, where all aspects of production—from vineyard to bottle—are conducted on the estate. The grapes are sourced exclusively from Finca Bolandín, a single vineyard located at 350 meters above sea level, where the combination of warm days and cool nights enhances grape maturity and acidity. The wine undergoes a meticulous vinification process, including cold pre-fermentation and aging for three months in French oak barrels, giving it complexity and structure. This prestigious designation as a vino de pago reflects the commitment of Pago de Cirsus to producing wines of the highest quality and distinct character.
