The wine
"There's purity and elegance, nuance and character. I love it!". Robert Parker's critic for Spanish wines, Luis Gutiérrez, was blown away by this splendid wine: 95 points for the 2020 vintage.
Casa Sosegada pays homage to the wines made in the past by families in farmhouses in the Valencian countryside and stored in concrete vats or half-buried clay jars. From the Fontanars dels Alforins area and with a very limited production, it is the wine to substitute Casa Bosca among the key reference wines by Rafael Cambra.
What does this wine taste like?
It has a tantalizing nose with notes of fresh berries, aromatic herbs, flowers, and a spicy touch. A delightfully expressive and showy wine. A medium-bodied mouthfeel with a pleasant texture, great freshness, acidity and balance thanks to fine and sophisticated tannins. Displaying an extremely noble character, it is a wine brimming with purity, elegance, and plentiful nuances.
