2022 Rosé 1.5L

The color on our 2022 Rosé is that beautiful light salmon color that we strive to have every vintage.  The vibrant nose has loads of fresh fruit aromas, including guava, watermelon, strawberry and star fruit.  There is a subtle savory component that is reminiscent of dried seaweed or perhaps a briny oyster.  The mouthfeel is seemingly light at first but builds intensity quickly with its silky texture and juicy acidity.  Fresh tangerine and peach skin linger in the backdrop, making this Rosé one you want to keep exploring.

Behind the Wine

2022 Rosé 1.5L

True to our old-world approach, this blend is crafted in the traditional Bandol style of Southern France. The fruit is specifically selected to be a part of this blend long before harvest, & our methods are intentional – making it what we call an “honest” Rosé. This is a balanced style of Rosé that retains crisp acidity & begs to be served al fresco.

Vineyards

The 250-Acre StoneTree Vineyard on the Wahluke Slope is ideal for growing Mourvèdre.
