2018 Rosé "McGah Vineyard"

Rutherford, Napa Valley

Tasting Notes

Slightly darker in color than years past, the 2018 Rosè is naturally deeper pink/purple. Rose petal, jasmine, honeydew and lemongrass notes in the nose deepen to watermelon as the wine warms and picks up air. Cucumber, fresh grapefruit and mineral water liven the palette leaving you refreshed and energized. A pool or beach on a warm afternoon is the perfect complement. Low alcohol allows for moderation without compromise. This Rosè will age, we know from 10 years of experience. Expect tartrates to form on the cork and bottle. Age at cellar temperature to avoid tartrates buildup. Serve chilled at 45 degrees Fahrenheit.
