Tasting Notes

Elegant and bright, this rosé has a nose full of fresh, ripe summer fruits. Cut strawberry and fresh peach flavors grace the palate and are lifted by notes of blood orange and green apple. Mouthwatering acidity is balanced by a creamy texture on the mid-palate. A long, lingering finish hints at this wine’s potential to go well-beyond the summer season. Enjoy outside this summer or save for a fun addition to your holiday table..

Grace Benoist Ranch

The Etude Rosé of Pinot Noir is sourced exclusively from parcels on our Estate Vineyard in Carneros at Grace Benoist Ranch where the cooler climate is well-suited for producing a rosé of exceptional quality. The cooling influences of the San Pablo Bay and Pacific Ocean allow for delicate maturation of the grapes and retention of the bright flavors found in the vineyard. This distinctive wine is crafted with Pinot Noir grapes that are grown specifically to showcase the attributes we desire in our rosé – fresh aromatics, vibrant flavors and natural acidity.

Crafted Excellence

Winemaking

This distinctive wine was crafted with Pinot Noir grapes that are grown specifically to showcase the attributes we desire in our rosé. Handpicked at night, the grapes are brought to the winery and gently whole cluster pressed while the fruit is still cool, being careful to have minimal skin contact. The juice was transferred to older French oak barrels and fermented under cool temperatures. The wine is then aged sur lie (on the lees) for four months, with no malolactic fermentation, to preserve crisp acidity and high toned delicate aromas.
