Foris Rose of Pinot Noir

Our 2019 Pinot Noir Rosé is 100% estate fruit, composed of the Pommard clone from two of our oldest blocks on Maple Ranch Vineyard. The fruit was hand-harvested in mid-September. One lot was pressed whole cluster and another lot was de-stemmed into bins for two hours before being loaded into the press. After settling for 48 hours, the juice was racked off solids and fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tank and neutral oak and aged on lees for three months. Pale pink, our 2019 Pinot Noir Rosé has aromas of tuberose and melon. On the palate, of our rosé of pinot noir has a fresh array of flavors such as pomelo, watermelon, and lemon, with lingering notes of orange zest.
