Definitely Grenache-based rose. Very well sculpted. Light fruit integrates well with acid and body. 2017 vintage tasted late Aug 2019.

175 cases. Whole cluster. No Saignée here. Trying to figure out if it's Pinot Noir or Grenache.

Made from gamay, overall a nice rose...not too fruity with a round feel. Just not my taste!

Ok. Let's see. What wines were not finished yesterday during our family Christmas celebration? Rose in December? It is 80 degrees so why not? A beautiful salmon color with very nice floral and spice hints on the nose. Great tastes of raspberries, orange zest and cinnamon. Crisp acidity and a very nice lingering finish. Too bad there was only one small glass of it left in the bottle! Made from Grenache grapes from Coombsville.

Crisp rosé with enough structure and backbone to extend beyond the typical "summer wine" I would casually enjoy.

Refreshing rose! Crisp, not too sweet.
