2021 Rosé
Our 2021 Rosé is 37% Mourvèdre,28% Syrah, 20% Grenache,and 15% Sauvignon Blanc with all the fruit coming Lake County, California. 50% of the grapes are put through a classic “white pressing program” and the other 50% go through a "Champagne pressing" program. The former gives us more flavor and color, while the latter gives us a wine that has intriguing aromas and more elegant texture. Combining the two optimizes the qualities of the fruit and creates a fresh, subtle, yet complex wine in the Provençal style.

Tasting Notes
The color of this wine entices with its pale pink hues. On the nose, aromas of floral jasmine and Alpine Strawberry abound. After the wine eases over the palate, flavors of ripe strawberries and Bartlett pears become readily apparent. The finish boasts notes of clover honey accented by a refreshing minerality. Much in the French style, this Rosé delivers just a suggestion of color, but follows with an abundance of complexity and flavor
