2021 St. Rose

100% Cabernet Franc rosé

As always, the vintage was produced employing a pre-fermentation technique called stabulation (St.= stabulation, not saint, but we say saint so you should, too.) Essentially the process delays the start of juice fermentation in order to wring out all the possible aromatics and flavors from the pressed grapes (i.e. the good stuff!) For fans of the ’20 St. Rosé: Sorry, no bubbles this year.

Strawberries and cream aroma contrast with sour cherry to near citrus flavors and complexity.

Suggested pair: grilled lamb, hammock
