Bodegas Isidro Milagro, Vega Badenes Bobal Rosado, 2023

The 2023 vintage pours a pale, delicate pink with glints of salmon. Aromatically it’s bursting with ripe strawberries, watermelon and a touch of citrus zest, leading into a juicy, fruit-driven palate. There’s a gentle roundness to the texture, balanced by zippy acidity that keeps things bright and refreshing. With its light body and clean finish, it’s an easy-going rosé that’s built for relaxed afternoons, serve chilled and enjoy with seafood paella, grilled prawns or just a big bowl of olives in the sun.

Bodegas Isidro Milagro is one of Spain’s major producers, with vineyards across La Rioja and Castilla-La Mancha. Though a relatively young operation, founded in 2002, it draws on generations of agricultural expertise, and focuses on producing clean, fruit-forward wines that offer great everyday value.

The Vega Badenes range comes from the heart of La Mancha, and the 2023 Bobal Rosado is made from the native Bobal grape, known for its naturally vibrant acidity and expressive red fruit character. This rosé is crafted to be fresh, approachable and perfect for casual drinking, reflecting the sunny, dry climate of the region.
