Description

This Rosé of Syrah is more than just a sipping wine. It pairs beautifully with salads, turkey and spicy fare. Its nose is like a berry and herb tea. It is fruity yet dry, light and bright with a long finish. Syrah has a grounded structure to support the fruit flavors. The grapes are picked at precisely the right time for Rosé production. Our sophisticated computer-monitored wine press gently presses the whole grape clusters assuring the wine is fruity, soft, and free of bitterness or other drawbacks of a hard press. Fermentation takes place in a stainless steel tank so we can gradually chill the juice until it ferments at around 45 degrees. This is the key to retention of the delicate fruit flavors..

The nose fills your head with lush aromas of ripe apricots, dried peaches and tropical flowers. The taste is exotic, sweet but not cloying; it’s like dried apricots over Cream Brulée, rich and sumptuous.
