La Santa comes from centenarian, own-rooted Rosa del Peru (Moscatel Negro) vines grown at high elevation in Tecate. The grapes were hand-harvested, de-stemmed, and fermented without temperature control in 450L concrete tinajas with 45 days of maceration. The wine was then raised for 3 months in 1⁄2 stainless steel vats and 1⁄2 older barrels. A lively and vertical vin de soif, La Santa is almost rosé colored in the glass, delicately floral, with red and dark fruits and juicy acidity. A lovely red wine to serve chilled with charcuterie and cheeses.
