Lot 487 | 2023 Sonoma County Rosé of Pinot Noir 750ml

Lot 487
2023 Sonoma County Rosé of Pinot Noir

750ml

$40/bottle under the original label

This offer comes from one of the most acclaimed producers in all of Sonoma County – for decades, their viticultural prowess and masterful winemaking have produced stunningly excellent cool climate expressions of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and most pertinent to today's offer, Rosé. Lot 487 is made from 100% estate fruit from first-class vineyards in the Green Valley of Russian River Valley.

The first whiff brings aromas of strawberries and rose petals, backed by white florals, stone fruits, and a bouquet of dried herbs. Lively and energetic on the palate, bright acidity and strong minerality uplift strawberry, watermelon, and herbs, riding an incredible texture and weight that extends the white florals. The mouthwatering dry finish has plenty of structure, carrying a touch of spice and cranberry-like hints before ending with wet stones and a kiss of vanilla blossom. This is a bottle that disappears very quickly on a hot day.

Great for summer!

"I first ordered a case of Rose of Pinot Noir for the summer of 2024 and it was so perfect for warm summer days and cookouts that I bought another case for this summer. Light, refreshing, and excellent!"

— Dan S. (5/5)

White + Red= Awesome Rose

"Take the “lightness” of a Sauvignon Blanc and add the fruit of a Pinot Noir and you get a great wine for warming temperatures and pairings with grilled chicken or salmon. Beautiful color and a great mouthfeel make this a wonderful wine with a lighter meal or before dinner during cocktail hour."

— Craig M. (5/5)

Excellent Rose!

"This Rose of Pinot is one of the best we’ve had. It’s clear, crisp and smooth with the distinct taste of Pinot in a lighter rose form. We highly recommend it!"

A Rose that Sunshine Captured

"This Rose' offers more of everything. A full bloomed aromatic Red Rose, white crushed rock and citrus scents. Terrific acidity as well as laser-like delineation. Good grip, crisp and clean finish, and very food friendly with apps."

— Michael J. (5/5)
