WINEMAKER NOTES

This was was made in the deliberate rosé style: The grapes were hand-picked, sorted and destemmed for overnight juice-skin contact. it was pressed with juice fermenting in neutral oak barrels. Aged sur lie siz months, the lees were stirred to contribute richness and palate breadth to the final wine. As the skins contain most of the tannins, the structure of this rosé has less of a tannic mouthfeel than a typical saignée style rosé.
