Wine Profile

Winemaker Notes
Grapes are whole cluster pressed then cold settled for 48 hours. The juice is started in tank then moved to barrel at 10 brix to complete fermentation. We use the battonage technique to suspend the yeast during fermentation, giving toast and body to our rosé. The wine is aged in barrel on the lees. It does not go through malolactic fermentation.
Food Pairing Notes
Shrimp Paesano, orange chicken, crab cakes with remoulade, oysters on the half shell, duck à l’orange, prosciutto-wrapped cantaloupe, goat cheese with strawberries and thyme, grilled salmon
