Winemaking Notes: The juice macerates with the skins for about one day or less. The wine is fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel and is lightly filtered before bottling.
Tasting Notes: The pale pink wine is crisp and vibrant with notes of strawberry, raspberry, and fresh cut watermelon that is held up by a mineral backbone. The finish is refreshing with hints of ripe fig, tangerine, and crushed wet rock.
