Laura's journey with rosé began in 2014 when she created her first rosé from barrel-aged Merlot. This initial experience ignited her passion for the complexity and depth that rosé wines can achieve with time. In 2020, Laura faced a challenge as her Merlot vineyard was threatened by smoke, which would have impacted the fruit intended for her Kitsune red blend. To adapt, she decided to harvest the grapes early, seizing the opportunity to craft another rosé reminiscent of her 2014 creation. The resulting wine showcases an amazing structure, vibrant acidity, and a lovely texture that enhances its versatility with food. It is designed to be enjoyed both young and has the potential for aging. Overall, this rosé reflects Laura's commitment to quality and innovation in winemaking, emphasizing both traditional methods and adaptability in response to environmental challenges.
