Winemaker Notes
Taking its inspiration from the great Rosés of Provence, this enticing wine beckons with tantalizing aromas of orange and lemon zest, wild strawberry, fresh-cut apples and a sophisticated hint of wet river rocks. On the palate, it is dynamic and dry, with a beam of bright acidity adding poise and purity to the zesty citrus and mineral flavors.
Production
The 2019 vintage began with a cold, wet winter followed by a cool spring, which resulted in a late budbreak. The cool, consistent weather provided abundant hangtime, ensuring ideal flavor development in the grapes. Yields for our red varieties were slightly above average, and temperate late-season weather allowed for a measured pace to harvest. Across the board, the 2019 wines are bright and balanced with smooth, elegant tannins and lush, vibrant flavors.
