California Rosé
Tasting Notes
Obsession Rosé aromas are abundant with tantalizing strawberries, white peaches and white flowers. The flavors continue with watermelon, honeysuckle and strawberries that are mouth filling, rich and full of a juiciness that finishes with good crisp acidity.
Vineyards
Chenin Blanc vineyards, located in the Alta Mesa sub AVA of Lodi are at the base of rolling hills of the Sierra Foothills with clay loam soils and a slightly warmer climate. The Zinfandel Rosé comes from older sandy soils in the Jahant sub AVA and is known for being a cooler and windier climate. Symphony is grown south of Lodi in a warmer climate bringing intense fruit flavors. The winery practices sustainable viticulture practices such as crop reduction, leaf removal, organic materials and drip irrigation to improve the quality and intensity of flavors. Cover crops, which attract beneficial insects, are also employed as well as owl boxes and wood duck boxes to help preserve the surrounding habitats.
