2009 Arcane Cellars Pinot Gris Rosé
Sharon's Block - Wheatland Estate
Willamette Valley

Unconventionally, this Pinot Gris was fermented as a red wine on its skins, which were the sole source of its rose color. This rosé has a beautiful pink watermelon color and explodes with cherry and cranberry on the nose followed by unexpected bursts of cardamom, clove and nutmeg. On the palate there is a center of pomegranate, strawberry and pear flavors, enveloped in a bright cherry finish. The wine is off-dry, with firm, green-apple acidity perfectly balanced by a subtle sweetness and a refreshing, clean mouthfeel. Served chilled, this is an ideal match for summer barbecue, grilled salmon, or by itself as a joyous aperitif.
