Is it red? Or pink? Roig Boig is Catalan for “crazy red”, but with a beautiful dark pink hue and only 10% alcohol, we’re going with funky winter rosé. Winemaker Toni Carbó started Celler La Salada in 2012 where his family’s estate calcareous clay soils ring with life; they’ve farmed sustainably for generations, untouched by chemicals. Carbó’s 2015 Roig Boig – a still co-ferment blend of five red and five white native varietals – is clean, fresh and lightly textured, with tart acidity, spring water minerality, and floral berry fruit. Super food friendly, and chuggable on its own.
