AROMAS & FLAVORS
Our 2021 Rosé of Grenache opens with bright aromas of fresh-picked strawberries and red raspberries. On the palate, notes of grapefruit with hints of cherry linger on the finish. This refreshing wine makes perfect for enjoying at spring and summer gatherings.
VINEYARDS & WINEMAKING
The fruit for our 2021 Rosé was harvested from a combination of our Firestone Vineyard and Crossroads Vineyard in Sta. Rita Hills. The fruit was fermented in stainless steel with native yeast using a process called stabulation, which delays the onset of fermentation and contributes to the aromatics of this delicate wine. The Rosé was bottled quickly to help retain the fresh fruit aromatics.
VINTAGE
The 2021 vintage was marked by a cooler, and longer growing season which provided fruit of wonderful concentration. The moderate weather throughout the year in the Sta. Rita Hills provided incredible fruit quality and balanced acid levels. Harvest was completed on October 23, 2021.
