Kimera Ancestral Pet Nat Rosado 2023

Navarra, Spain

Garnacha Tinta (100%) · 2023 · 12.5% abv

Sour cherry, pomegranate and wild strawberry meet almond pastry and brioche. A gentle, creamy bead frames a dry, sapid finish with a cranberry snap. Joyful, but with shape and drive.

Production

Soft press; cool primary ferment in stainless steel. Bottled with ~24 g/L sugar to finish in bottle; 10 months on lees. Disgorged à la volée and topped with the same wine; tiny SO₂ at bottling. Residual sugar varies naturally — character, not correction.

Vineyard

Garnacha from San Martín de Unx (Baja Montaña) at ~500 m on calcareous clay. Old, dry-farmed vines and the Cierzo wind keep acidity taut; mountain nights preserve perfume while the sun gives ripeness to carry the second ferment.

Pairing

Lobster roll with lemon butter, tuna crudo with tomato and capers, or jamón-laced tortilla. Salty, fatty, or lightly sweet notes play perfectly with the wine’s fruit and mousse.
