Lighter rains in the winter and a warm spring led to an early bud break and, ultimately, a second earlier harvest in a row. 2021 had a warm growing season and a lighter crop which also contributed to the early harvest and we picked the grapes for our Rosé of Pinot Noir on September 9th.We gave it a shorter time in the press this year to achieve a beautiful salmon and grapefruit pink color. We fermented the wine in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures and bottled a short four months after the grapes were picked to maintain the fresh fruity aromas.
