A Grenache-specific rose, and the first that featured fruit from the Swallow Hill Vineyard in Ashland. As in previous years, this is our "middle" rosé in the spectrum of sweetness, fruit and body. The fruit all comes from the Rogue Valley, 56% from Swallow Hill, 20% from Serenade, 20% from Buxton and 4% from Aardvark. Rosé all day. 91pts WE
Sourcing classic rosé varietals from blocks that were specifically planted and grown for Rosé, this vintage is done in a dry, Southern French style. The blend is approximately 48% Grenache, 42% Syrah, 9% Mourvedre, and 1% Counoise. A bright citrus skin note balances the full fruit flavor. The finish is crisp and refreshing.

This wine is based on a recipe that we have made for friends and family in years past. We fortified a sweet rose' of Tempranillo early in fermentation, aged it for 9 months to allow for the spirits to marry, and then lightly infused it with holiday spices, including orange peel, cinnamon, and clove. It's excellent served warm, and will be a popular part of any holiday gathering.
