This Casa Rural Candidato Rosado from La Mancha is a rosé that hits the sweet spot: ripe strawberry and raspberry fruit with a dry finish and zingy acidity. It’s refreshing, not cloying—perfect for warm days and spontaneous moments.
Crafted from Tempranillo and Garnacha, this pink gem shows off the sun-drenched personality of central Spain. It’s youthful, fruit-forward, and uncomplicated in the best way. A porch wine, picnic wine, and tapas wine all in one.
