Cranberry color with red apple, strawberry, and red grapefruit aromas that suggest a savory character. On the palate it's light-bodied, dry and well-balanced with vibrant acidity, and tart strawberry, raspberry, a hint of cranberry, and spice flavors and a lingering, mouth-watering finish. 12.1% alcohol The grapes bespoke for Rose were picked at 21 brix, were then pressed into both neutral French barrel and stainless steel, and fermented with native yeast. Atypical for rosé, the wine went through malolactic fermentation (ML), allowing it to be bottled, both unfined and unfiltered, the latter also extremely rare for rosé. Immanently quaffable, yet contemplative. Killer stuff!
