Matthiasson California Rose 2022

$28.00
Excl. tax

Light as a feather, almost floating across the palate, with a beautiful clean finish.
Subtle fruits, salty minerality, and refreshing acidity.
The blend is approximately 34% Grenache, 32% Barbera, 16% Counoise, 14% Mouvedre, and 4% other reds.

The fruit is grown specifically for rosé, which means that they keep the vines a little happier than for red wine, making plump juicy grapes that are vibrant and refreshing. To capture that zesty brightness, they harvest very early, barely past veraison, similar to the level of ripeness for sparkling wine. They capture the fruit when it is high-toned, crisp, and refreshing.

 

More from the Winemakers:

MATTHIASSON is a family endeavor, the effort of Steve and Jill Klein Matthiasson, and our two young sons. We have both had life-long careers in sustainable agriculture, and we apply those ideals of balance, restraint, and respect for the individual—and for the whole—to our wine. Our production is simple but careful. This concept is central to the tradition of viticulture and winemaking. Respect for this tradition forms the core of our work. To that end, our hands literally touch every vine and every bottle. Steve Matthiasson started out as a vineyard guy, not a winemaker, but with clients that included Araujo, Spottswoode, Chappellet, and Stag's Leap, Matthiasson gleaned valuable info on creating fresh, vibrant new wines. With his “grapes come first” sensibility, his skill at balancing lusciousness with crisp intensity and his fascination with little-known varieties, Matthiasson is helping to change the Napa Valley paradigm.
