At first the acid felt out of balance. Notes of barnyard and raspberries. But a little while later, and along with a fat steak and some sautéed kale, that acid blended in more and it was a work of art!
Raspberries still dominate but the barnyard fell into a back note. It feels like a warm summer evening as the sun is about to go down. Notes of light cherry and a hint of tarragon lead into a balanced palate of dusty earth and cranberry. The best cali wine I’ve had for a bit.

Jul 19th, 2020First 2019 taste of our favorite Rosé and it looks to be great as ever. As is typical for Copain’s Rosé of Pinot, a deeper pink than many matched by a strong nose of strawberry & maybe pear. Not as light as many Rosé with a dry finish, some mineralogy and maybe some grapefruit in addition to the strawberry & pear. A very nice wine that can go further than many Rosés with various foods or alone but don’t drink too cold-
