2023 Rosé of Cabernet Franc
Do not let the classic pale onion-skin color of this 100% whole cluster pressed Cabernet Franc rosé somehow convince you that this wine is somehow wimpy or uninteresting. As is often the case with this beautiful wine from famed Red Willow Vineyard, sweet raspberries, light pastry notes, and a hint of lemon zest on the nose invite you to taste, where flavors of the same are joined by those of strawberries and early season rhubarb. The mouthwatering, slightly creamy mouthfeel leads to a finish full of fruit notes, citrus zest, and lingering minerality. Enjoy this wine with raw shellfish, a lightly grilled filet of halibut or lemon-roasted chicken.
