New moon
Aromatic and generous, with just a whisper of color, she is dusty rose and raspberries, sweet basil and nilla wafers, with a touch of thyme and salty grapefruit carrying through to the most fresh and lively palate.
This is the Rosé I have always wanted to make.
Pair this with a friend who doesn’t mind your flaws, seared scallops, Thai papaya salad, or a springtime pasta carbonara.

Crunchy cranberry, rosewater, white pepper, tart cherries and a hint of white chocolate. I feel like I’m walking through a brambly forest with wet soil as I arrive at the most beautiful little fairy house I have ever seen. Magic.
Pair with sauteed mushroom crostini, rosemary or tandoori chicken, grilled salmon niçoise salad, or cacio e pepe.

This wine is intensely aromatic, with abundant fruit and spice. Scents of dried eucalyptus, freshly tilled earth, slippery elm bark, fig newton, pink peppercorn, cherries, black plum, and tobacco. On the palette, orange marmalade is the lift that carries through the fine tannins and snappy acidity.
Pair with shawarma, tzatziki, pizza, pot pie, loaded baked potato, or roasted root vegetables.
