Vineyard
We farm the exceptional grapes for our 2023 Rosé of Pinot Noir from the esteemed Mendoza Vineyard, located off River Road in the renowned Russian River Valley AVA. This vineyard, planted in the early 1990s, features dry-farmed vines of the Martini clone, now over 30 years old. These mature vines produce vibrant fruit notes that define the wine's character. The unique terroir of the Russian River Valley ensures bright acid retention, resulting in a rosé with both freshness and complexity.
How it's made
Our 2023 My Rock Rosé is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, drawing inspiration from our winemaker Max's experience at Whispering Angel to achieve a true Provence-style rosé. The process begins with a slow, gentle press, allowing skin contact only in the press to extract the perfect amount of color. We then age the wine in stainless steel barrels for six months, preserving its fresh, vibrant character. This method ensures a rosé that is bright, crisp, and full of delicate fruit and floral notes, embodying the elegance and finesse of its French counterparts. 134 Cases Produced
