The 2011 Rosado Sinfo Fermentado En Barrica is the same blend as the 50 Vendimias, but with four months on the fine lees in American oak. It offers an attractive Morello cherry and strawberry-scented bouquet that is reminiscent of a light Pinot Noir. The palate is well-balanced with good weight in the mouth, that American oak lending light mocha notes that do not impede upon the red fruit. Nicely balanced with good length, this easy-drinking rose offers great pleasure. Drink now. Importer: Bon Vivant Imports; www.bonvivantimports.com

The 2009 Sinfo Rosado spent 5 months in American oak, most unusual for a Rose wine. Dark pink in color, it reveals mineral notes, rhubarb, and cranberry aromas followed by a wine with very good grip, excellent concentration, and a fruit-filled finish. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. Bodegas Sinforiano was founded in 1966 and its family vineyards are all Tinto del Pais (Tempranillo) bush vines ranging in age from 40-120 years.Importer: Brad Jensen, Bon Vivant Imports; www.bonvivantimports.com
