90 “This is pretty in pink personified, with fresh, sweet aromas of chilled peach and Honeycrisp apple slices. Peaches dominate the light-bodied palate, where they are joined by notes of lemon zest, saline and juniper berries. The wine's acidity is perky, which is how you may feel after the first sip.” – Wine Enthusiast

Winemaker's notes: "Our 2023 Vineyard Select Rosé is composed of fruit sourced and grown specifically for rosé production. Whole clusters were hand-loaded into the small horizontal 2-ton bladder press where the fruit underwent light, quick pressing in order to limit skin contact and minimize oxygen exposure. This direct-press juice was vinified entirely in stainless steel without any cold soak on skins. The juice underwent a light bentonite fining after cold settling for 24 hours. The wine was racked off of gross lees and rested in vessel for 6 months before bottling. A small portion of neutral barrel fermented rosé was blended into tank. The final wine was gently bentonite fined before undergoing cold stabilization.
"Notes of bright lemon-lime zest complement the traditional under-ripe strawberry, lush passion fruit, and subtle melon notes. Hints of white pepper, crisp green herb, and racy minerality on the finish create a satisfying, mouth-watering wine perfect for warm spring and summer days. Chill to 45-50°F and serve alongside an array of cuisines to include deviled eggs, goat cheese and fresh crudite, baked ham, watermelon gazpacho, niçoise or chicken salad, or fresh seafood such as baked salmon, grilled shrimp, or fresh-rolled sushi."
