2020 Mimi's Rosé

Mimi's Story

With signature freshness and bright acidity, this wine is a tribute to Mary “Mimi” Seavey and her incredible vitality and generous spirit. Mimi would have enjoyed this lighter style wine. Entirely estate grown, our 2020 Rosé is a refreshing blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 5% Chardonnay sourced from just a few special rows of our vineyard blocks. Winemaker Jim Duane’s dedication to quality is exemplified in his creation of this clean, crisp wine.

PRODUCTION NOTES

This fourth vintage of Mimi’s Rosé began with the early pick of designated Cabernet Sauvignon rows. The grapes were gently whole-cluster pressed, followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks.  The Merlot arrived soon after and was gently pressed and left on the skins for two days to create color and texture. A very small amount of Chardonnay was added in order to bring those fresh, crisp, fruity notes.

SUGGESTED FOOD PAIRINGS

Serve this versatile wine chilled with seafood, sushi, or a salad. For a contrast pairing, it will hold up well with any recipe made with eggplant, lamb, and mushrooms.
