This wine was made from our youngest French-certified Cabernet Franc vines to give it a fresh, bright red fruit profile. You will find hints of strawberries in the wine's bouquet. Crushed, destemmed and cold soaked to extract a pale salmon color this wine has a "grip" and presence lacking in rosés made from inferior and often over-cropped grapes without real substance. 11.6% alcohol

Erato, the goddess of Greek mythology derived her name from the word "lovely," which is what this aromatic steel fermented, unoaked wine is. The distinct aroma comes from a small portion of Muscat Blanc a petit Grains grown on slate soils in our highest elevation vineyard. It is a splendid aperitif wine. 12.1 % alcohol.
