The 2021 growing season began with frequent rainfall, leading to rapid canopy growth across the farm. The fast-established leaf presence proved crucial, as continued precipitation and cloud cover in summer put a greater level of importance on the solar energy collected in spring. The fall brought enough sunlight and respite from the rain that harvest brought in fruit with a compelling balance of sugar and acid levels. Wines from this vintage will feature a strong backbone of acidity with fragrant aromas and nuanced layers.
Following a midnight harvest on October 18, the Cabernet Franc grapes for this carbonated Rose sat on the skins for a 12 hour cold soak before being pressed off, yielding its pale pink hue. The juice was then fermented dry in stainless steel tanks before carbonation.
This new bubbly is full of red berry characteristics; strawberry aromas are followed by a refreshing combination of raspberry and strawberry flavors, and an effervescent, crisp, clean finish.

A great summer wine
From Charles Rine of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania on .
I was surprised by this wine and wished I had drunk it in the shade outside on a hot summer day. Perhaps my expectations for wines from the eastern US need a reset. This is as good as a French rose at the same price point but with a little spark of bubbles. But it’s not bubbling over like a champagne or sparkling wine. So “bubbly” is an apt description for this one.
