Pinot Rose

Producer: E Gordon
Region: Sonoma, CA
Grapes: 100% Pinot Noir

A richer and more voluptuous style of rosé boasting dark cherry, ripe strawberry and subtle dashes of peony with a backbone of white nectarine and cling-pit peach. Think of this as a “reserve” rosé, a slightly more serious 100% Pinot Noir that’s ready for a special occasion at every occasion.

Beach-ready sandwiches, chicken tinga tacos.

This White Zinfandel is low in alcohol and full of watermelon flavors. It is fermented in stainless steel with Premier Cuvee yeast.
