$17.90 per bottle
Description:
We make rosé because we love drinking it and we believe it to be the most versatile wine to pair with food. We make our rosé from premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay (as is done by the best houses of Champagne) because they compliment each other so well. We prefer this combination because the Pinot Noir ripens consistently well in the North & Central Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys producing fresh strawberry and cherry flavours and aromas without any oxidative or cooked character. Chardonnay helps to liven the acidity further and brings beautifully complimentary citrus character that adds to the complexity of the wine. We prefer a slightly off-dry style to give better mouth feel and greater definition to the fruit flavours. We believe in using the best possible grapes rather than those that were not good enough for the red wine, as is done in many cases the world over. We believe in pressing the wine off of the skins rather than bleeding it off of the red wine so that we are able to extract maximum flavour and complexity. We prefer standard fermentation rather than carbonic maceration because we derive cleaner flavours and greater individual character in the wine.
