2019 Rose



Maturation:  Stainless Steel Tanks
Alcohol:  13.1%

"Our 2019 vintage of Rose opens with aromas of grapefruit zest and rhubarb. This wine is comprised of 62% Syrah, 22% Grenache, 16% Mourvèdre. On the palate you will taste bright cranberry, juicy raspberry and a subtle watermelon freshness on the finish. Our Rose is made in a dry style and is an amazingly broad food paring wine. Enjoy with seafood dishes like fresh oysters, seared prawns or mussels steamed with herbs and white wine."
Ross Wise, Winemaker

A moderate and consistently dry summer set the expectation for a very good 2019 vintage, as we approached the critical fall ripening period. While September brought higher than average rainfall, vigilance and attention to detail in the vineyard kept disease pressure to a minimum and ensured fruit arrived at the winery in pristine condition. The cool fall temperatures, combined with earlier than average harvesting dates has resulted in wines with intense fruit aromas, restrained alcohol levels and a fresh acidity so characteristic of the Okanagan Valley.
