“Fancy Pants” Pinot Noir + Pinot Gris

Originally made in 2021 when we had a bin of fruit come into the winery containing 50% Pinot Noir and 50% Pinot Gris, Fancy Pants is made for moments when you want something lighter than red wine, less tannic than skin contact and more berry-fruited than white. Directly influenced by the work of Sylvain Pataille and his Fleur de Pinot Marsannay Rosé, this is rosé made for the dinner table, as well as for the cellar. Pair with all sorts of veggies, both fresh or cooked, roast chicken, fish (including sushi), as well as desserts such as strawberry shortcake or peach cobbler. Winemaking: Four day maceration in stainless steel, with fruit dug out and pressed slowly over the course of eight hours. Put directly to neutral French oak to complete fermentation and rest in barrel for 10 months before bottling, with an additional seven months of bottle rest before
