Rosé

Everything Minus Tide does deserves attention, and this rosé is no exception. Carignan is one of those grapes that shows a completely different side of itself in rosé form, much less adstringent, and this is a beautiful example. Made from organically grown, head-trained vines planted in 1908 at Feliz Creek Vineyard in Mendocino. The color is an almost neon salmon hue, vivid and striking in the glass. The nose brings so much of a coastal energy, with fresh fruit notes of unripe strawberries and apple skins, and ocean water. On the palate, it’s clean and lively, slightly herbal, with a bit of texture and a pithy, salty, bright finish. A wine that feels carefully made - very approachable and easy to enjoy. Only 96 cases were made.
