Vine-growing
The grapes for this organic and vegan wine are sourced from vineyards grown according to organic growing criteria in a balanced, caring and sustainable way. The vineyards’ soils carry great importance, being very active with good biological conditions which favour a fast assimilation of reincorporated organic matter. This enables full terroir expression.

Wine-making
Pasión de Bobal is produced from a meticulous selection of the best bunches harvested in the highest of our vineyard plots in Camporrobles. The grapes undergo a 16-hour skin-contact maceration at a very low temperature to release aroma precursors. The first quantities of free-run juice bled from the vat are fermented at a controlled temperature. The fining, stabilization and filtering processes before bottling are carried out with the greatest care in order to preserve all of the wine’s character.
Tasting
A brilliant, light pink colour. An intensely aromatic nose with plenty of red berry fruit notes (redcurrants, cherries and strawberries) together with subtle hints of rose petals. Well-structured on the palate, flavoursome, full and balanced. Fresh acidity brings the wine a vivacious, lively character. It develops magnificently on the palate towards a long and flavoursome finish, in which varietal flavours come to the fore.
Food Pairing
Excellent with appetisers and cold dishes, salads, vegetables, white meats or rice dishes.
Best served at a temperature of 8-10ºC.
