WINE DESCRIPTION

The wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the cool climate of Carneros, which is known for its maritime influence and clay soils.

The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the delicate aromas and flavors of the fruit. The resulting wine is a refreshing and elegant rosé with notes of strawberry, watermelon, and citrus, and a crisp, dry finish. Perfect for sipping on a warm summer day or pairing with light dishes.
