Sold out quickly last year. While it lasts.
Tasting Notes
Light pink salmon in color, with aromas of watermelon, cranberry, orange rind, and fresh spring flowers leap from the glass. The palate offers notes of peach, strawberry, and melon, with an intriguing note of fresh basil and pomegranate. Though packed with fruit, our Rosé finishes dry, with a nice balanced finish. This wine is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to develop further in the coming months.
Winemaking
Composed of 100% Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast. Made in a Saignée method which captures the essence of the fruit just after harvest. We ferment in neutral barrels, allowing the delicate fruit to express its varietal character.

90 Points
Rich and voluptuous with ripe raspberry, cherry, and plum, layered with hints of lavender, fig compote, and exotic spice. Concentrated and complex, the palate is a balanced interplay cocoa, and a hint of espresso, creating both richness and intrigue. Vibrant acidity and silky tannins that contribute heft and length that coat the palate with luscious ripeness that keeps on giving.
