2019 Las Jaras Old Vine Carignan Rose, Redwood Valley, Mendocino, California

This is the fourth vintage of this sparkling wine utilizing the “methode traditionelle.” This unique method results in a wine that is very refined and elegant with nothing forced.  This wine has a lovely copper hue, a nose of green strawberry, hay in the breeze, toasted hazelnuts and marshmallow. On the palate there is apricot, comice pear and cocoa enveloped in a fine texture. There is a long finish with crisp lime like acidity.
