THE STORY:
Mas Amor, or 'more love' echos the livelihod of Barcelona. The label art was deliberately chosen to represent the urban nature and energy of the city. The graffiti picture was taken on Valentine's Day, February 14th 2010. From vineyards in Catalunya, on the slopes of the Ebro river, this lovely rose was hand-picked between the 14th and 17th of September, in the early morning to preserve the freshness of the fruit. A very short maceration (between 6 and 8 hours) brings the lovely pink hues and the wine was fermented in 100% stainless steel and sees no oak.
