Rosée des Pyrénées Catalanes

Rosée des Pyrénées Catalanes is white veal meat obtained from the Pyrenean Brown, Aubrac or Gascon hardy breeds or from the cross-breeding of the mothers of these breeds with males of the Charolais, Limousin or Blonde d'Aquitaine breeds.

The production area is located in the Catalan Pyrenees, which is a culturally and geographically homogenous area, despite belonging to two different states – France and Spain. The free-range calves remain with their mothers throughout their whole life and they feed exclusively on maternal milk and mountain pasture grass.

They are processed unweaned when they are between five and eight months old and the minimum weight of marketed calves is 110 kg. The prized meat is tender and its color ranges from pink to light red and it is very rich in iron and low in fat thanks to the outdoor natural life of these calves.
