Winemaker Notes:

Harvested from our estate by hand October 24, 2025 at a brix of 20.60 and pH 3.87 and were whole cluster pressed with <1 hour skin contact, just long enough to get a Provence style light rosé color and some characteristic skin flavors imparted. Fermented dry (no residual sugars) at cool winery temperatures in special egg-shaped “Apollo” Flextanks. The Apollo tanks have the advantage of a convection fermentation, meaning the gases constantly roll up and down the center which stirs solids continuously for maximum flavor extraction.

The Rosé has some of the characteristic tasting notes of Mourvedre - raspberries, strawberries, black pepper. It will best be enjoyed chilled as an appetizer wine or paired with typical foods for white wines, with a slightly more robust and distinct flavor due to the grapes and flavor infusion from skin contact.

Vineyard Notes:

Our Estate Mourvèdre grows in the lower bowl at 1,900-foot elevation in granitic-volcanic soil. It is grafted on special drought-tolerant rootstock which allows it to dig deep in this soil for natural water. It thrives in the warm daytime breezes from the Central Valley and cool Sierra evenings, a 30-degree swing in temperature. The French 520 clone pairs exceptionally well with food. The lower block location is cooler, perfect to ripen over a longer growing season and develop complex flavors. It is typically the last harvest of the season.
