2023 'Rosalee' Rosé of Pinot Noir
Named 'Rosalee' in honor of our matriarch Rosalee Fogarty, this Rosé is produced from a single block of Marafield clone, Pinot Noir grapes. Grown at our Gist Ranch Estate, this Swiss clone presents the right amount of tannic and phenolic strength to create a tasty rosé.
Vineyard
Will’s Cabin Vineyard is less than half a mile from the Gist Ranch Estate. The vineyard sits on fine, sandy soil known as vaqueros sandstone. It is also north facing and 200 feet higher, making it much cooler than Gist Ranch. Here we have planted swan and Mount Eden clones. Uniquely, we’ve also incorporated Mariafeld, a clone originating in Switzerland, which tends to add more tannin and a deeper color to the wine. This clone is used to create a Pinot Noir named after the vineyard as well as our Rosalee rosé of Pinot Noir.
