Description

The grapes for this Rosé, a combination of Cinsault and Syrah, were harvested from vineyards across Sonoma County, where daily temperature shifts result in intense but well-balanced wines.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: 

A fragrant bouquet of vivid red fruits greet the nose in this 2021 Rosé. 

Palate: 

There is a soft texture and salinity to the palate with lively acidity and refreshing summer flavors of strawberry, watermelon, and pomegranate. The finish is succulent and delightful.

Winemaking
Vintage Notes: 

2021 was a smooth and uneventful harvest season. June started out warm, followed by a cool and foggy July and August that slowed ripening and caused nice retention of acidity. Even ripening, with no extreme heat events, made for ideal growing conditions. Sparse winter rains resulted in an early bud break, evenly developed clusters, and smaller berries packed full of flavor. Overall, the fruit was exceptional, making it another amazing year for quality.
