Producer notes: "100% Grignolino. The beautifully bright and vibrant pink hue of our Grignolino Rosé is the siren of spring and summer. Notes of ripe strawberry, peach, orange zest and grapefruit jump out of the glass and its fresh acidity makes this wine a perfect choice for warm weather days. The Grignolino grape is a little-known Italian red variety, farmed on our estate vineyard since 1961, that bursts with surprising flavors and a vivacious mouthfeel when made as a Rosé. The juicy texture, lively aromas, and refreshing palate are a treat to enjoy on its own or paired with your favorite spring and summer seasonal cuisine. Alcohol 13.5%. 1,280 cases produced."
Not yet reviewed; 2017 vintage rated 93 points by Wine & Spirits: "...markedly aromatic, with scents of hibiscus and plums, but the flavors are tart and savory, bringing to mind ruby-red grapefruit and cured meats. Joe Heitz started making grignolino when he and his wife, Alice, purchased their first vineyard, eight acres in St. Helena planted solely to the variety. Farmed organically, it produces a wine that's more an edgy red than a rosé, built to chill for charcuterie. 700 cases."
