Vineyard Notes
Chalk Hill is blessed with an abundance of volcanic soils that drain quickly and produce small, more intensely flavored and colored berries without aggressive canopies. Reaching above 1,000 feet in elevation, the vineyards of the AVA tend to have excellent sun exposure. Afternoon temperatures are moderated by the cooling Pacific breezes out of the Russian River Valley. The blocks for these grapes range from rich clay top soil to 30º slopes with vines struggling to maintain their hold.
Winemaker Notes
This is a classic Rhone blend Rosé made from Grenache, Syrah & Mourvedre that were picked on the same day and co-fermented in stainless steel. The grapes incurred 2 hours of skin contact prior to pressing and non-saccharomyces yeast was used for sulfite reduction therapy. The juice was then inoculated with yeast isolate from the Champagne region of France. After fermenting between 55 and 60 degrees, the wine was sent to a local champagne house for secondary fermentation, where it received 8 months of tirage.
