2022 Vin Gris

Our Vin Gris is a Provencal-inspired, dry rosé wine that weve historically made from Mourvedre, Cinsaut and Grenache. In 2021 we began an experiment with rose from Zinfandel grapes, and loved the rose-petal aromatics and lively acidity it brings, making it an easy decision to add it into the blend in 2022. As a result, its the most vibrant and quenching Vin Gris weve made, which seem like great attributes for a summertime aperitif! On the nose the wine is quite generous, with aromatics of wild and candied strawberry, charentais melon, citrus blossom and climbing rose. The palate is focused and refreshing, with flavors of watermelon and its rind, some sweet citrus, and just-ripe strawberry. -GH
