WINE DESCRIPTION

Hill Family Estate Rose of Pinot Noir is a delightful rose wine produced by Hill Family Estate, in Napa Valley, California. Made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Kittle Vineyard on the Carneros side of Napa, the grapes benefit from slower ripening in the cooler location. Half of the grapes are picked early for vibrant acidity with the remainder picked later for riper fruit flavors. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing to achieve a pale color, cool fermentation to preserve fruit flavors, and a partial, short, maturation in oak barrels to add a hint of vanilla to the red berry flavor. Overall, Hill Family Estate Rose of Pinot Noir is a well-crafted wine that showcases the potential of Rose styles in Napa Valley.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Pale pink in color, with a charming nose of slightly tart, red berry fruit the palate is light bodied with moderate alcohol that makes it well suited to lunchtime drinking where its vibrant, palate-cleansing acidity offers delightful refreshment.Serve with light means and drink within the first 4 years of production.
