Franscesc writes: "What do we get if we put together all grapes from the rural state? What do we get if we put together different varieties? What can we do with an almost nonexistent variety? And what if we just use the Flower from the falling grape-juice? These questions arose Abrunet Frisach Rose. The union of three varieties so similar yet so different, collected at the same time, reassembled and harmonize together for a day." All the grapes for their rosat comes from a single vineyard and are harvested together at the same time.
