2024 Desire Lines Sky Vineyards Grenache Rosé

While the review for our 2024 Sky Vineyards Grenache Rosé isn’t yet released, Antonio Galloni spoke glowingly of our 2023, calling it “superb, effusive and aromatic… a rosé with real depth, complexity, and structure to match.” We shared a precious bottle with family over Christmas and were thrilled with how beautifully (and slowly) the wine is aging.

The 2024 is a touch more concentrated than the 2023, effusively charming with a magnetic draw. White flowers, raspberry, orange citrus, and a bit of mountain garrigue (Yerba santa and California bay laurel) soar from the glass. The fruit intensity is practically palate-staining, a product of young vines watered minimally on a steep and rocky slope, with refreshing acidity and subtle phenolics creating a sense of tension and poise.
