Winemaker Notes:
"This Rosé can run marathons! Wine is fit with watermelon, sweet scarlet grape, and a bit of mint. A prickly texture at the roof, slight hint of tart pineapple guava and a finish that has a little savory sensation.
Always fun to make this wine because I get to play with different varieties and ferment them in a manner that’s more.... “what if?” This Pinot Gris this year was not harvested by hand this year but by machine (my first time), so I fermented everything on skin for texture and color. Cab Rosé? Why not. I’ve never made one before, so I was curious. Cinsault? Oh hells yeah. Always one of my favorite grapes for Rosé. I also found some Thomson Seedless that was a gamble, but actually works! Never in my life would I believe I’d work with Thompson Seedless outside of a grocery store."
