The fruit for our Sofia Rosé is grown in Monterey County, an appellation known for its cool climate and diurnal temperature pattern, where warm daytime temperatures may drop nearly 50 degrees in the evening. This condition extends the growing season and helps the grapes to ripen slowly.

2021 began erratically with heat spikes and cold, windy weather, leading to a lighter crop, overall. Once fruit set, weather stabilized to steady mild to warm weather, providing perfect conditions for ripening and the development of phenolic concentration and flavor. The 2021 Sofia Rosé celebrates this vintage with bright, fresh fruit flavors and outstanding balance between ripeness and crisp natural acidity. Aromatic notes of fresh cherry, minerals, and white flowers tantalize the nose. The palate is lively with flavors of pomegranate and fresh cherry, with minerality continuing through the finish.
