Description

"The 2018 Rosellas has the classic blue fruit profile focused by energetic - almost electric - acidity, streamlining the long, luscious finish." - Matt Revelette, Winemaker Wonderfully high-toned and pure on the nose, the 2018 Rosellas displays bright cherry, macerated strawberry, pomegranate and subtle hints of sage. The delicate mouthfeel of the wine has a seamless interplay of tannin and acid, holding the bright fruit notes through the finish. A wine that has the signature Rosella's notes of graceful tannins and racy acidity, this is a Pinot Noir that showcases the windswept northern Santa Lucia Highlands and meticulous viticulture that makes the fruit shine so brightly. The brightness of this wine is incredibly difficult to resist.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
2018 Santa Lucia Highlands: What a Difference a Year MakesDeep, glistening magenta. Expressive aromas of fresh, spice-tinged red and blue fruits and candied rose pick up cola and mineral nuances with air. Juicy, focused and seamless in texture, offering penetrating raspberry, cherry, boysenberry and spicecake flavors that deepen steadily as the wine opens up. Smoothly blends power and finesse. A very long, gently tannic finish echoes the floral and spice notes.
