2009 Napa Valley Rosé of Pinot Noir
Vibrant strawberry in color, the airy strawberry-rhubarb aroma opens brightly with a touch of depth and a hint of white pepper and spice. Wild strawberries come through clearly on the palate, complemented by bright Bing cherry and a delicate, zesty acidity. Medium-bodied, this dry rosé strikes an excellent balance between lean and weighty, and the mouthfeel is clean and crisp instead of sticky and sweet. A classic Pinot Noir rosé overall, the nish lingers with ripe fruit akin to fresh strawberry lemonade.
Made in the saignée method, where the grape juice is bled of the skins after 48 hours of skin contact, our inaugural rosé was fermented with a oral white wine yeast strain in 100% stainless steel tanks. Perfect for summer fare, we would recommend a grilled red snapper with mango salsa, or a simple spinach salad with goat cheese, strawberries, and balsamic vinaigrette.
