2020 Estate Rose, Hawley Vineyard
Gold Medal - SF Chronicle Wine Competition
New release for Wine Club in Spring 2021!
Our 2020 Rose is made from 100% organically grown fruit on the Hawley Vineyard! This is the ninth vintage of Rose we have made but the first vintage of Estate Rose! John would argue that mountain grown Zinfandel fruit makes the very best Rose. We pick at the perfect level of sugar and acidity, ferment cold in a stainless steel tank and bottle in December to lock in the bright, fresh fruit flavors.
Tasting Notes
A perfect rose with a gorgeous, light crimson hue. Aromas of ruby red grapefruit, watermelon and apple blossom fill the glass. Flavors of guava, citrus, fejou, and strawberry. A crisp wine with a smooth finish.
