Tasting Notes:  Nellcôte's unique rosé is a whole-cluster pressed, intentionally crafted rosé made from premium mountain fruit, sourced from Bald Mountain Ranch atop Mount Veeder.  The ranch is dry-farmed, and produces small berries of extraordinary depth and concentration.  They allow two hours of skin contact and aim to produce a food-friendly wine that has a depth of character, structure and bright acidity.
 
Vivid aromas bring to mind blood orange, tart cherry, citrus zest and hibiscus flower; alongside notes of red cherries, pomegranate, dry berries and white tea.  The wine is bright and focused on the palate, with a vibrant acidity and medium body.  With an ethereal finish that lasts and lasts, this is a true wine lover's rosé with a South of France soul and a Napa Valley attitude.
