Winemaker’s Notes: We initiated the process by placing whole clusters of Cabernet Franc grapes with dry ice into stainless steel tanks for a swift four-day carbonic maceration, aimed at minimizing skin extraction. Following this, the clusters were gently dug out and pressed directly into three 1000-liter French oak vats for natural fermentation. Both primary and secondary fermentations were completed over a five-week period. The wine then matured for four months in 1000-liter French oak barrels. 

Sommelier’s Notes: This Rosé exemplifies a fresh, citrusy profile, noticeably lighter in color compared to our 2022 vintage. It elegantly straddles the line between a traditional rosé and an orange wine. Aromas of grapefruit and guava greet the nose, leading into a palate characterized by vibrant acidity and a ripe, lingering finish. This wine is undoubtedly a summer favorite—effortlessly enjoyable and perfect for sipping as the temperatures rise.
