Mourvèdre Rosé

WA - Yakima Valley

$20.00 / 750 mL Bottle

Alcohol 12.9%

Bottling Date 02/12/17

This 50/50 blend of Mourvèdre and Carménère starts off with notes of fresh-cut hay and alfalfa and bright flavors of red currant, cranberry and rhubarb. The bone-dry finish also carries a spritz of pepper, giving the wine excellent food-pairing potential.

Notes

We harvested this rosé a little earlier than usual. We did this to capture higher notes of acidity that would allow more vibrant fruit notes to shine through. We also let the grapes macerate for a full 36 hours to give it a nice deep red color. This wine is meant to be served chilled on a hot summer day!
