Rosé the Riveter - Release Update!
Friends!
The 2016 vintage is aging beautifully, and we are excited to release our first Rosé of Pinot Noir this spring!
We are naming our 2016 Rosé "Riveter" after the World War II icon - Rosie the Riveter. Due to limited production our 2016 Riveter will be available to our Founders Club only - and we're aiming for a Memorial Day (5/29) release!
We are still accepting applications for our Founders Club! Our first 100 members will enjoy a lifetime 30% discount on all wines! After that club membership discounts will be tiered. So be sure to sign up for our Founders Club so you can reserve your bottle of Riveter today!
Many of you have had the opportunity to taste our 2016 Rosé - and it's already become a hit! Aromas of peach, strawberry, and bubblegum compliment smooth acids, and a soft grape tannin.
The skins were cold-soaked for four days to achieve a clear strawberry-pink hue with fruity esters. We then bled off 300L of juice for the fermentation, which lasted for a month and maintained cool temperatures throughout. The yeast, specialized for Rosé, also converted much of the malic acid to provide a round mouth feel.
Our production estimate is approximately 30 cases, which means there will be a six (6) bottle limit. The club price on the Rosé will be $20 per bottle -
We will be contacting club members individually to confirm their pickup starting May 1st. Members can mix and match their pickup while enjoying a 30% discount! Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions, or if you would like to reserve your bottles early.
Be sure to come in and taste our 2016 Rosé if you haven't already! Riveter is going to be a hit this summer, and won't last long!
