Rocker hairdo, sunglasses, plaid shirt... As chummy and laid-back as Daniel Morales appears, when it comes to wine, he becomes a «complexity freak», as he says himself. The 42-year-old is originally from Priorat, which is known for dense and concentrated red wines. Making wine on a resort island is an exciting challenge for Daniel, because rosé wine is also in high demand here. «If I make a wine, then a real one», is his motto – and that's why he also wants to achieve complexity in his rosé. That's not without risk: «Everything is decided within a few hours with rosé – but it's worth the risk.» It's a good thing that Daniel Morales can count on a brand-new, ultra-modern bodega. That makes things easier, of course, but ultimately it's the winemaker's gut feeling that decides. The courage to dare something new has definitely paid off: In addition to the Organic Wine Award 2013, the «Twenty Twelve» also received the RedDot Award for its extraordinary design. Incidentally, the wine owes its name to the year of its birth, 2012 – a year we should remember, because it is possible that a new era of rosé began in Mallorca at that time. For us, in any case, the tasting was a revelation: Yes, that's how rosé must taste! You still think of vacations when you think of Mallorca? We only think of the «Twenty Twelve»!
