La Crema Monterey Pinot Noir Rose 2024 - 750ml

90pts Wine Enthusiast

A deeper pink color in the glass, this rosé offers lovely cherry and bubblegum aromas on the nose. The palate starts tightly and then opens into cherry and red apple flavors.

Winemaker Notes

Delicate aromas of mandarin, watermelon, and raspberry are supported by subtle notes of chalk and stone. Flavors of strawberry, peach, and orange creamsicle are throughout the wine, with a juicy acidity, and flinty mineral notes that help drive a long finish.

Vineyard Notes

The Monterey AVA consists of a long valley stretching from the cold Monterey Bay to the far Southeast reaches of the Salinas Valley. An ever-present breeze and maritime influence rise from the ocean, cooling vast expanses of rolling vineyards. Sourced primarily from the Panorama vineyard along with four other distinct vineyard sites spread out across the Monterey appellation, this rosé captures the diverse flavor characteristics of the Monterey AVA.
