Production Notes
The Priest Ranch Rosé begins with a whole cluster press of Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. We harvest the grapes exclusively for this wine to achieve the perfect level of alcohol; acidity is high and color. Then, the wine was aged for seven months in 100% stainless steel tanks.
