A vibrant, mineral-kissed rosé made for long afternoons and sun-drenched evenings. This Cabernet Franc-driven beauty is all about freshness, energy, and that first-sip “ahhh” that signals patio season is officially here.
Taste
Lifted aromas of wild strawberry, key lime zest, white nectarine, and jasmine set the tone. The palate is crisp and lively, with flavors of passion fruit, raspberry, and honeydew melon gliding over a streak of refreshing minerality. The finish is bright and mouthwatering—an instant mood-lifter.
About the Winery/Winemaker
Sourced from sustainably farmed sites at Gamache and Lewis Estate vineyards, this rosé showcases the expressive potential of Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc, blended with just enough Syrah for added texture and depth. Fermented primarily in stainless steel to preserve aromatic purity, a small portion was aged in neutral French oak puncheons for added roundness. Bottled with precision, this wine is as thoughtful as it is easy to love.
Why We Love It
This is the kind of rosé that disappears quickly—from your glass and your shelves. It’s polished yet playful, fruit-forward but not sweet, and balanced with a mineral backbone that makes it endlessly refreshing. An instant crowd-pleaser for cheese boards, summer picnics, or simply celebrating golden hour.
