Wine Profile

Food Pairing Notes:

The Rosato is a versatile wine that goes well with food that is like in color. It pairs surprisingly well with corned beef and cabbage. Try it with the butternut squash galette from Smitten Kitchen. https://smittenkitchen.com/2007/10/butternut-squash-and-caramelized-onion-galette/

Production Notes:

The grapes were picked at 22 brix, the juice drained after several hours on the skins. It was aged for six months in a neutral oak barrel and then bottled. Only 48 cases were made.

Tasting Notes:

Flavors of rose petal and peach are followed by honeydew and spice. This wine has a rich mouthfeel and a lingering finish.
