Scar of the Sea Rosé of Pinot Noir 2022

Country: USA

Region: Central Coast

Type: Rose

Grape: Pinot Noir

This vintage of Rose comes from a newly planted and producing vineyard, Casa Contenta, located just west of the Topotero & Bassi Vineyard, in Avila Beach, within the SLO Coast AVA. 

The Pinot Noir was picked for natural acidity and foot tread to soak on the skins for 4 hours before being whole bunch pressed.  The juice was settled overnight then barrel down to old french oak to ferment with native yeast & bacteria.  The wine aged on lees for 7 months, bottled unfined and unfiltered, with minimal sulfur used.

Notes of alpine strawberries, ocean mist, and orange peels.
