Where’s Linus? Rosé (2021)

REGION: Mendocino, California

COUNTRY: United States

GRAPE(S): 100% Petite Sirah

BODY: Light

ABV: 13.2%

TASTING NOTES: Juicy, and fresh with just a hint of tannin! Bordering on the red side, you'll get some herbs on the finish. Its seriously deep color is matched with a structure that’s uncommon to the genre which makes this wine a refreshing sipper when chilled, but also is a formidable food wine. 

WINEMAKING NOTES: Organically and dry-farmed the grapes are harvested and whole cluster pressed, slowly (early September through late December) fermented by ambient yeasts in a stainless steel tank and kept on its fermentation lees up until bottling in spring. It saw SO2 only before pressing, bottled without fining or filtration.

PAIRS WELL WITH: Spicy shrimp tacos or Cajun grilled fish, Grilled or roasted salmon or seared tuna, BBQ pork ribs or grilled sausages, chicken tikka masala, pizza with roasted vegetables, sausage, or fresh herbs (like basil or oregano).
