Toro 'Rosado Ecologico' Bodegas Piedra 2023

The Toro ‘Rosado Ecologico’ represents a bottle rich in hints of red fruits and aromatic herbs produced in the province of Zamora by Bodegas Piedra through a highly sustainable agronomic approach, based on the principles of certified organic farming. The Rosado of the Toro denomination is traditionally produced from a blend of Tinta de Toro and Garnacha, but the version from Bodegas Piedra exclusively uses Tinta de Toro, the main variety of the area. Like other labels from the estate, the ‘Rosado Ecologico’ also features an animal, specifically the kingfisher.

Toro ‘Rosado Ecologico’ Bodegas Piedra is a 100% Tinta de Toro grown under certified organic conditions on alluvial soils within the Bocarraje plot, planted in 1967 with the bush training system. After the manual harvest of the grapes in 20-kilo boxes, a meticulous selection of the bunches follows, and then the gentle pressing. Subsequently, the must is extracted using the bleeding technique and subjected to alcoholic fermentation in French oak barriques at controlled temperature, the same type of wine containers where the wine matures on fine lees for 3 months with weekly batonnage. At least another 90 days of aging in glass follows before hitting the market.
