Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The inviting pale coral hue and lovely aromas of fresh raspberry and Rainier cherry introduce this crisp, dry rosé. Buoyant acidity bathes the palate while revealing flavors of red berries, honeydew melon, Chelan cherry, Santa Rosa plum and traces of lime zest. A restrained creaminess appears mid-palate along with hints of white floral. The crisp acidity returns on the lingering finish, refreshing the palate for the next sip.
Production Notes
Each lot we picked was kept separate and soaked on skins for just a few hours before the juice was pressed off. With only this limited amount of skin contact, the Rosé developed its gorgeous color.
With the intense minerality and lean, racy acidity inherent in the resulting juice. I decided to employ full barrel fermentation and time on the lees, to enhance the flavors and develop a richer, fuller mouthfeel. With stirring the lees and tasting every few weeks, I very carefully chose the right time to bottle.
Winemaker Notes
I think this wine showcases a truly unique interpretation
of Rosé. The mountain terroir brings such vibrancy to
all the estate wines we produce, but it especially comes
through in this small bottling.
Food Pairing Notes
Enjoy it with grilled salmon and fresh garden pea risotto, or smoky cumin baked chicken served with basmati rice.
