Rose

2015 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Aril Rosé is a delightful expression of the Pinot Noir varietal, hailing from California's stunning Sonoma Coast. This 2015 vintage showcases a beautiful rose color that perfectly captures the essence of warm summer days. The wine delivers a light-bodied experience, harmonizing refreshing acidity with its mildly pronounced fruit intensity. Expect enticing notes of strawberries and watermelons, combined with delicate floral undertones that make for a pleasingly bright palate. With its dry finish and crisp profile, Aril Rosé stands out as an ideal choice for social gatherings, picnics, or simply enjoying a moment of tranquility while soaking in the coastal breeze.

Region:


Sonoma Coast

Stretching along California's raw and rugged northern shores—and reaching quite far inland—Sonoma Coast is the largest AVA in Sonoma County. The proximity to the ocean makes wines here very different from those from more central AVAs. Whether the vineyards are on high ridges above the fog line or warm, fog-shrouded valley floors, the marine soils, low temperatures and cool Pacific breezes slow the ripening of the grapes. The result? Highly structured, delicate wines with plenty of acidity. The main stars here are white peach-tinged Chardonnay and wild strawberry-flavored Pinot Noir, but you will also find some excellent cool-climate Syrah with notes of white pepper and cherry.
