2015 Rose

Our Rosé is a traditional blend of Grenache (53%), Mourvèdre (34%) and Cinsaut (13%). While Grenache provides plentiful juicy red berries, the salmon-pink hue and wild (sauvage) character remain the hallmarks of the Mourvèdre grape. Incorporating a subtle touch of Cinsaut adds a savory watermelon nuance. This is a balanced style of rosé that retains crisp acidity. It is a wine that begs to be chilled and enjoyed al fresco, keeping in mind that some folks credit France as the place where the word ‘picnic’ originated!

This is an elegant and unique vintage that displays Salmonberry color with aromas of cherry blossom, strawberry leaf, pomegranates, pie dough, citrus spice and grapefruit with a touch of star anise – actually it’s quite an exotic nose. The flavors are rich, round and savory revealing strawberry leather, juicy watermelon and subtle raspberry. With a beautiful long acid-driven finish, it is a perfect wine for summer cuisine.
