Cellar Aixalà i Alcait ‘Cal.ligrima’ Carinyena Rosat 2018 screwcap This single-vineyard Pinot Noir showcasesCaligram, a drawing with words. It's a pink loaded with terroir and varietal typicity, textural and interesting with food (rather than all those vapid, scared of life rosies). A Rosat (Rosado) of outrageous Carinyena purple! Has an excellent spicy herbal twang, steely Llicorella mineral adds to the tang, as does the wirey briaryness of Carinyena. There's just a touch of glycerol, but no heat, and good acidity organises the soft, earthy fruit core.
