82% Grenache, 18% Mourvedre

From Unti: 3.5 acres of grenache noir planted in 1998 and 2007. Mourvèdre planted in 1998. The grenache noir plant material was sourced from Tablas Creek and Alban Vineyards, who brought cuttings over from Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

We make Rosé by lightly crushing the grenache and mourvèdre grapes directly to the press. In order to make a Provençal-style rosé that is not dark-hued or tannic, we limit skin contact to a few hours. The wine is fermented completely dry and aged in stainless steel or concrete tanks until it is bottled. We prevent the wine from going through malolactic fermentation in order to retain bright acidity.
