I am pretty picky when it comes to whites and roses... they've gotta be perfectly balanced, not too fruity, dry, acidic, oaked, etc... This Rose was simply delicious and the perfect choice for a summer night (even in foggy and cool Berkeley). Can't wait to try some of your other wines! Sounds like a great excuse to visit Healdsburg.

I can pick it up. I have worked for Ravenswood Winery since 1991 and only wish that we made Barbera instead of some of the 40 or more wines that we do produce. Let me know about how you wish to be paid. If you have a secure website I could order with a credit card or pay when I pick up.

I don't remember if I shared my first experience a few years back. We opened a bottle at the Hoffmann House with brunch and shared it with folks at an adjoining table, then the waiter, where we had so many enthusiastic comments that I certainly hope that they have it on their wine list by now! I was very happy to pick up a case of it over Passport, I may regret sharing it with my son, but ....! Hey, was the "sans foil cap" intentional or was I just too early to pick it up?? :-) Every since you first made a rose, you were mindful of preserving a full mouth feel with a completely dry finish, which has surprised and pleased so many friends with whom I shared the wine!

I think this will be our best, once it sits in the bottle for a few more weeks. Hopefully you'll see it there at A-16, while you are heckling Tim, Michael and Benito.

Many Roses in California are made through saignee, or draining juice from a red fermenter. When most folks harvest for red wine here, their sugars are quite high, causing them to either live with high alcohol or add water to lower it. Now that we are identifying sections of our Grenache and Mourvedre vineyards to harvest specifically for Rose, we are achieving an alcohol level that allows us to make the wine without adding water. As such, it is more naturally balanced with bright acidity. Maybe someday we'll get it down below 14%. what a bonanza that would be! Hi Clark.

The description above states that the wine is naturally lower in alcohol, yet it is still 14%. Are other Rose wines typically much higher? Lower alcohol would be nice for the hot summer days of Texas. We love your Rose and have been drinking it for several years.
