Winemaker's Notes: This is a co-fermentation of Estate Grenache Rosé and the juice of apples grown in our friend's orchard down the street. We made this wine in a "Pet-Nat" (Petillant Naturel) method, in which we bottled the wine at the tail end of primary fermentation, capturing the last bit of CO2 in the bottle (creating the sparkling effect). On its own is just fine, but for food pairings, try something fun like peach jam and goat cheese crostinis. Alternatively, you could experiment with mild curries, or even a roasted pork loin, especially if it’s with apples!
Ageing Potential: Now - 2029+
Additional Info: The goal with this project was to try my hand at my first multi-fruit wine and create what can be a fun and delicious marriage of apple and grapes!
