Unveiling Chozas Carrascal: Where Tradition Meets Innovation

A Legacy of Excellence

Chozas Carrascal, a family-run winery in Valencia, Spain, seamlessly blends modern techniques with time-honored traditions. Founded in 1990 by Julian Lopez Peidro, the winery is now led by his children, Maria José Peidro and Julián Lopez Peidro Jr., who continue to uphold their father’s vision. Their dedication to biodynamic farming and sustainable practices ensures exceptional wine quality. At Tasters.wine, we are proud to be a Spanish wine importer, bringing their remarkable wines to enthusiasts in Florida, Texas, and South Carolina.

Three Wines to Savor

We proudly offer three of Chozas Carrascal’s outstanding wines:

  1. Roxanne: This sparkling cava exudes elegance and finesse, perfect for celebratory occasions. Roxanne is produced using traditional methods, resulting in fine, persistent bubbles. The palate is greeted with notes of citrus, green apple, and a subtle toastiness from extended aging on the lees. Its crisp acidity and balanced profile make it an excellent aperitif or a companion to seafood, light salads, and soft cheeses.
  2. Las Tres: Las Tres is a testament to Chozas Carrascal’s expertise in blending. This wine is crafted from Bobal, Tempranillo, and Syrah, each variety contributing to a complex and vibrant profile. Expect vibrant notes of red fruits like cherries and raspberries, interwoven with subtle spices and a hint of oak. The aging process imparts a smooth texture and depth, making it an excellent choice for pairing with grilled meats, rich stews, and mature cheeses.
  3. Las Ocho: A truly complex and rich wine, Las Ocho is a blend of eight grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha, and Merlot. Each sip reveals layers of flavor, from dark fruits such as blackberries and plums to earthy undertones and spices. The well-structured finish and balanced acidity make this wine versatile for pairing with a wide range of dishes, including game, roast lamb, and robust pasta dishes. Its complexity and depth also make it a delight to enjoy on its own.
