Winemaking
Picked in the cool early morning hours and immediately to press the delicate fruit and chilled to preserve freshness. Primary fermentation is in stainless steel tank, with the addition of neutral French Oak barrels adding complexity and mouthfeel to the finish.

All Wines
Generously packed with exotic cassis, black cherry, cola and plum flavors knitted together in a creamy, velvety texture with nice layering, finishing with delightful notes of spice. Persistent, well-defined structure, wonderfully balanced.
Crisp & Refreshing
Aromas of watermelon, cranberry, orange rind, and fresh spring flowers that leap from the glass. The palate offers peach, strawberry, and melon, with an intriguing note of fresh herb and pomegranate. Though packed with fruit, this Rosé finishes dry, with a nice balanced finish.
