Tasting Notes

Appearance
Very pale and elegant.

Aroma
These red Rhône varieties are intrinsically suited to creating a dry rosé, displaying delicate rose hip and strawberry aromas.

A juicy, crisp palate.

Vinification
Hand-picked. Varieties whole bunch pressed separately to tank and settled. Clear juice racked to stainless steel for cool fermentation. Matured on lees in stainless steel before blending and further maturation in old French oak for 5 months. Certified Organic and Biodynamic.

Vintage notes
The growing season began with significantly higher than average rainfall. The cool, wet conditions continued through Spring, setting us up for balanced canopies and lower yields. La Niña weather patterns forecast cooler temperatures and continued rainfall for harvest. We were able to enhance vineyard practices such as shoot thinning and leaf removal to promote airflow, reduce mildew and increase sun exposure to bunches. From our experience, a cold vintage in a warm region can produce some of the best wines. Due to the cultural practices implemented, we were able to pick the majority of the vineyard in a three-week window prior to Easter, completed in early April.
