Magrana is a direct-press rosé from Tutti Frutti Ananas, a collaborative project based in Banyuls-sur-Mer on the Côte Vermeille, where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean. The 2019 is 80% Syrah and 20% Carignan, sourced from organically farmed vineyards planted over a mix of sand, schist, and quartz — parcels both near the coast and higher up in the surrounding hills.
The grapes are direct-pressed on arrival at the cellar and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel, then aged in large concrete vats. The wine is bottled young, unfined, unfiltered, and with no added sulfites. "Magrana" means pomegranate in Catalan, a reference to the wine's deep, vivid pink color in the glass.
The wine is made at Les 9 Caves, a shared cellar the three co-producers use in the center of Banyuls-sur-Mer. The label reflects the winemakers' backgrounds: Manuel di Vecchi Staraz (Italian, Vinyer de la Ruca), Zé Tafé (Portuguese, La Cave des Nomades), and Joachim Roque (French-Catalan, Domaine Carterole). Each Tutti Frutti Ananas wine takes its name from a fruit in one of their native languages.
The Collioure and Banyuls area is one of the most difficult vineyard landscapes in France — steep schist terraces that require hand work throughout, with notoriously low yields. The wines from this pocket of Roussillon carry a distinctly Mediterranean character: sun-warmed fruit balanced by salt air and garrigue.
