Solarce are the entry level wines from the Casa la Rad estate in Rioja Baja. The large, family-owned estate is located in the northern foothills of the Valle de Ocón, and encompasses 2,000 acres; mostly native oak forest, with 272 acres of vineyards, and 37 acres of olive groves. They seek a balance between their activity and the local environment so as to sustain or improve its vitality and biodiversity. Winemaker’s note: “We try to do a true translation of our vineyard’s speech in terms of wine with the grapes it gives us, thus Solarce Rosado combines all the grape varieties we grow in our vineyards of Cogotillos, Presas and Manantíos.”

90pts Vinous – Antonio Galloni – 2018 vintage

“(all stainless steel) Vivid onion skin color. Fresh strawberry and tangerine aromas are sharpened by a mineral nuance and a hint of white pepper. Chewy and focused on the palate, offering zesty red berry and citrus fruit flavors and a refreshingly bitter touch of peach pit. Finishes firm and dry, with a building mineral note and an echo of juicy red fruit.”
