Tasting Notes
Sometimes you just have to take things really, really easy. Once said an 80’s seductive, animated, Cadbury’s Chocolate bunny! Excellent marketing BTW, and not unlike our Rosé winemaking philosophy. Harvest was desperately late, yet we still took our time. We took it so easy that we bottled a whole two months tardy. The resultant report card is a refreshing white cherry/berry medley, it's a dry, dry Bordeaux-inspired, oh so, refreshing rosé. With a lightness of touch that comes directly from fifty plus year old Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Perhaps you can indeed teach an old vine to mellow in time. Oh, and the marketing Gurus even had time to dress it in a fancy schmancy new seductive couture bottle. Relax, watch grass dry and paint grow, enjoy.
