The soft, tropical aromatics of this pale peach rosé immediately express the dichotomy of this unique wine. Two separate harvest dates, one barrel fermented, and the other stainless tank fermented create racy acidity upfront with lingering creamy, softness from mid-palate to finish. Aromas of white flowers, fuzzy peach, and pineapple skin show off the expressive side of the wine. The racy acidity upfront lifts flavors of orange blossom, tangerine zest, and nectarine. The silky texture creates layers throughout the palate from bright to mineral to mouth coating to textural with acidity continuing through to the finish.
