Idlewild 2025 Rosé ‘The Flower’

Tech Variety: Barbera, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo, Grignolino Location: North Coast, CA Alcohol: 11.8% Tasting Notes This vintage is a touch lighter and more delicate than previous vintages. It shows all the bright and fresh sides of rosé we love with a pronounced structure to pair with food. There is a play between savory versus fresh and subtlety versus power that make this wine very intriguing. The aromas are wound up around blood orange, grapefruit pith, alpine herbs, wildflowers, and sea spray. Winemaking Grapes were all picked together. In the winery, they were whole cluster pressed, fermented via native yeast, left on all the lees and solids, aged in neutral oak and stainless steel, and underwent native secondary fermentation. Vineyard While this wine is designated as North Coast, the fruit largely comes from Fox Hill Vineyard. Located southeast of Ukiah on Mendocino’s Talmage Bench, the soils are well drained with high concentrations of gravel and sandstone.
