ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2025 vintage in the Pacific Northwest came at the winemakers fast. A wetter spring gave way to warm, dry weather, and bloom moved quickly, setting the stage for an early and compressed season. Summer brought steady heat and very little interruption, pushing ripening along at a brisk pace and giving us smaller yields with concentrated fruit. A timely cooler stretch helped slow things down just enough to preserve freshness and keep sugars and flavor development in better sync. By harvest, it felt like the whole vintage was happening at once, but the fruit quality was excellent. These wines should show plenty of energy, concentration, and aromatic lift, with enough balance to make them delicious young while still rewarding some patience.
Grapes were hand-picked and brought directly to the winery in 1/2 ton totes in perfect condition. Stomped by foot before pressing, allowing skin contact for a few hours to color the juice. Native yeast fermentation took place with 60% in neutral French oak barrels and 40% in stainless steel tank. This rosé went through partial malolactic fermentation for a richer mouthfeel and a little extra breadth on the palate. Bottled in March 2026.
