The 2022 Monarch Challenge Rosé is a unique, coastal blend coming from RAEN Pinot Noir lots, married with a block of beautiful, old vine Grenache, all hailing from organically farmed vineyards in line with the Monarch Challenge’s goal of a cleaner, healthier, more brilliant planet. The wine opens with vibrant aromas of white flowers, lime blossom, candied lemon zest, crushed apricot, and sun-ripened white nectarine. Tones of wild strawberry, stone fruits and damp earth follow. On the palate, the wine is sumptuous, lifted and bright. Flavors of crunchy nectarines, sun-ripened apricot, wet rock and, orange pith are all held together with a bright acidity, racy, zesty citrus blossom, and a long- lasting mineral finish.
