Dawn at the Harvest
#IA #Tech #Industria
At five in the morning, while the desert still holds its silence, the magic begins at Rosa de Arena. Workers move through the vineyards, scissors in hand, selecting the perfect grape clusters. Each grape is placed in crates and immediately transported in refrigerated trucks, ensuring freshness and quality.
“It’s not just cutting grapes; it’s a ritual that connects people to the land,” says one coordinator. Every gesture—from removing protective nets to sorting the clusters—reflects care, patience, and passion, values that can be tasted in every bottle.
Planted on dunes with 98% sandy soil and extreme temperatures—hot days and cool nights—the vineyard gives the grapes strength and character. This unique terroir makes Rosa de Arena more than wine: it is the essence of the desert in a bottle.
The Alchemy of Fermentation
Each cluster follows a meticulous path: alcoholic fermentation, malolactic fermentation, and the delicate remontage that extracts color and aroma. Precision is key: the time the juice contacts the skins determines if the wine will be red, white, or even orange.
“Wine is born from respect for the fruit and attention to every detail,” explains Emiliano Fuentes, involved in every stage since 2018. Each bottle tells a story of dedication and continuous learning.
Inspiration that Transforms Lives
For many, love for wine arises unexpectedly. A sommelier from Chihuahua discovered the world of wine after closing his nutrition practice during the pandemic. Today he runs the state’s largest wine club and shares his passion with those eager to explore the richness of viticulture.
Every tasting is a multisensory experience: notes of vanilla, coconut, coffee, chocolate, and red fruits, paired with fine charcuterie, show that wine is not only to be drunk—it is lived, felt, and shared.
From Grape to Glass: A Celebration of Life
Rosa de Arena is more than wine; it is art, tradition, and collective effort. Each harvest is an opportunity to reconnect with nature, the team, and the story of a desert that blooms year after year.
Words that sum up the experience: passion, gratitude, and pride.
