Raindrops on Roses

 
  • After taking the 2020 season off from harvesting wine grapes due to wildfires, we’re elated to have been able to make our next rendition of Raindrops on Roses with 2021 biodynamically-grown Pinot Noir grapes from our neighbors at King Estate. We decided to ferment this beautiful beer entirely on the skins for this go around, aging it briefly in stainless steel before letting it rest in French Oak puncheons we picked up last summer from our friends at Durant Vineyards. What we present to you today is a stunningly pink, rosé-inspired farmhouse ale with a medium tannin structure and wonderful jammy flavors and aromas.
