Rosé

The kind of rosé you want to drink all day. Perfectly crisp, with just the right balance of ripe mixed berry fruits and a terrific mid-palate salinity that makes this so sumptuous and enticing, building with kinetic energy on the palate and finishing with a long, wet-stone, almost chalky mineral character, with lingering strawberry and stone fruit notes. Just lovely. It comes from cool and shaded areas, the grapes are dry-farmed on sloping marine sedimentary soils akin to Willakenzie in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Aged in neutral French oak barrels for two months. Made by Anthony King, winemaker at Carlton Winemakers Studio, Kristof Vineyards has been in the Kristof family for over half a century. It was first home to Ladis Kristof, a Second World War refugee who survived a concentration camp before resettling in Oregon in 1952. His son, Nicholas Kristof, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and author, planted the vineyard alongside his wife, Sheryl WuDunn, a fellow Pulitzer winner and business consultant. Together, they created Kristof Farms, producing small-lot Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, rosé and heirloom cider.
