Rose

Rose Wine Details
Price:

Description: I pull a little rose every year from the Grenache vineyards I work with; literally sticking a commercial kitchen sieve into the just crushed fruit and siphoning off clear must. This concentrates the Grenache portion of the M5 blend and gets us a little spring fling wine. This year the emphasis is on fling as the rose has a stupid amount of alcohol in it (ripe Grenache) and consumed in any context (picnic, staff meeting, aperitif) it will surely lead to orgies and drunken behavior. I don’t see it when I taste the wine but the laboratory I send it to for analysis assures me it has lots of potentness. I really like the wine but...... just to be safe, drink it really cold and with potential and current mates.
