Having a subtle pink and salmon hue, this dry Cuvée offers up a beautifully expressive floral nose of tangerine, melon, honeysuckle and baking spice. The Rosé is a crisp-bodied wine which reflects predominately red fruits, strawberry, cranberry and cherry with hints of citrus and Granny Smith apple. The wine offers great freshness and a firm but smooth, fruity finish.
For food pairings, Texas brisket, and grilled or roasted meats and vegetables complement this wine.
65% Tempranillo, 35% Grenache
Notes
The Grenache and Tempranillo grapes were hand-harvested in the cool of the night into small bins then delivered to the winery in a refrigerated truck to preserve freshness. At the winery, the grapes were whole-cluster pressed with minimum skin contact then cold settled for 48 hours prior to fermentation with native yeasts. After fermentation, the wine rested in stainless barrels, sur lie (stirring on lees) aging for four months until bottling.
