See Tasting Notes

BACKGROUND

The rose was whole-cluster pressed very slowly for over 6 hours with a cold, slow fermentation. It was then Sur-Lee aged in seasoned French oak barrels for 90 days prior to bottling.

WINEMAKING

Produced from a single vineyard - Abba Vineyard.

A Classic Provence-Style pink-salmon colored Rose picked early with intention.

TASTING NOTES

The nose is dominated by Hibiscus, canary melon, and stone fruits with delicate accents of anise. On the entry, the Rose is velvety and soft; a creamy texture and viscosity. This full-bodied Rose wine has layers of watermelon, strawberry, white peach and a touch of citrus rind coupled with hints of subtle earthy tones.
