2018 Sonoma Coast Rosé ($24.00)
The fruit for the 2018 Sonoma Coast Rosé is sourced from West Block. West Block is located in a cool, wind-blown area of Petaluma Gap in the Sonoma Coast AVA.
Planted in the early-90’s to the Joseph Phelps clone of Syrah, this vineyard block is oriented east-west allowing even ripening during the long, extended growing season. The close proximity to the San Pablo Bay create a maritime climate that further accentuates the cool climate for Petaluma. The soils are derived from decomposed sandstone and shale, adding intense minerality and complexity to our Sonoma Coast Rosé.
Our 2018 Sonoma Coast Rosé is based on Syrah from a cool climate vineyard site in one of the newest subregions of Sonoma, the Petaluma Gap. The Syrah brings a delicate aroma of white cherry, kafir lime and red apple, the palate is juicy and fresh with red raspberry and fennel. The wine finishes with a salty minerality and vibrant acidity.
