TASTING NOTES: Watermelon, Cherry Jolly Rancher, Strawberry Agua Fresca
THE STORY: A beautiful, lively and focused rosé of Valdiguié and Zinfandel. This predominantly Valdiguié rosé is balanced by the bright and slightly spiced Zinfandel blend from two vineyards. We used both Valdiguié and Zinfandel grapes, which blended together, is a stunning rosé with enough structure to pair with many dishes but still easy enough to drink alone or paired with light-hearted conversation. We foot stomped the Valdiguié grapes, which remained on the skins and stems overnight before being gently pressed. The Zinfandel went directly to press and both naturally fermented and aged together in stainless steel tank.
FUN FACT: Valdiguié was often called Napa Gamay by many farmers in California
