Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
True to its name, this rosé has a delicate pink shade. It greets your senses with aromas of light honeysuckle mixed with wild berries. Strawberry flavors with a hint of prickly pear juice dance on the tongue. The finish is crisp and bright, lingering long enough for you to want another sip.

Winemaker Notes
Mourvèdre (more-VEH-drha), also known as Mataró or Monastrell, is a red grape varietal that historically has been grown in France and Spain. It does well in warm to hot climates making it a perfect addition to Texas wine making. This Mourvèdre Rosé was made using the maceration method. The red grapes were crushed slightly, and fermentation was started on the skins to give a pink color. After a few hours, the skins were removed, and the wine continued to ferment.
Food Pairing Notes
Light antipastos, chilled ceviche, gorgonzola cheese, strawberry fields salad with a light vinaigrette, fresh melon and mixed berries.
