Heavy winter rains as well as cooler growing conditions led to a delayed bloom and flowering, resulting in a longer hang time for grapes. Harvesting the entire vineyard in just two weeks, as opposed to the usual seven-week period, was a notable deviation from the norm and it is a testament to the dedication and hard work that goes into grape growing and winemaking. Patience and expertise were rewarded with an exceptional, age-worthy vintage. Whole cluster pressed, our fruit was fermented in 2-ton stainless steel tanks. The lees were stirred daily for the f irst couple of weeks to increase mouthfeel perception and the fermentation culminated in hand selected neutral barrels. T his could possibly be the best rosé we have ever made! Refreshing aromas of peach, guava and fruit punch combined with floral notes of rose petals will jump out of your glass. The balance of vibrant acidity and a delicate, elegant body creates an exceptional texture and a lingering finish
