The Organic Sparkling Rosé is ALT.'s Tempranillo-based wine — 100% certified organic grapes from the sandy, chalky soils of southern Spain, dealcoholised using the same patented low-temperature process as their white. In 2023 it won both a Great Taste Award and scored 98 points at the IWSC, which puts it among the better-rated AF rosés around. It pours a pale salmon-pink with lively fine bubbles. The nose is light and summery: ripe strawberry, a hint of watermelon, and a subtle herbal note that stops it reading as simple fruit juice. On the palate it's medium-dry, with clean fresh acidity keeping the fruit in check. The sweetness level is lower than most AF rosés, which tend to compensate for lost alcohol with sugar. At 20 kcal and 4g of sugar per 100ml, it's towards the lighter end of the category. Organic and vegan certified, it's the kind of wine that works equally well at a dinner table or poured into a large glass with ice on a warm afternoon. Versatile enough for food — charcuterie, salmon, soft cheese — but perfectly fine on its own.
