2023 Rosé, California Space Age - Grounded Wine Co.

On the night of July 20, 1969, we stared at the moon and listened to the radio chatter of the Apollo 11 astronauts. Once voice boomed back to the listeners on Earth declaring, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." This brand focuses on the emotions at play during the American Space Age, producing a grounded authenticity that speaks of the wine inside.

Vintage Notes

Ample soil moisture accumulated during the winter kickstarted the 2023 growing season for our Central Coast  vineyards, resulting in a strong bud break and excellent canopy development. The relatively small crop translated to concentrated flavors and the long cool summer months allowed the fruit to retain amazingly fresh natural acidity at harvest for our 2-2023 Space Age Rosé. 

Winemaking

Following harvesting in the cold early morning hours, we follow a rigorous program modeled after the techniques used to produce our favorite  Provencal rosés. Whole clusters are placed directly into the press upon arrival and the fresh juice is slowly fermented at ultra-low temperatures. The wine is bottled early to preserve maximum freshness. 

Tasting Notes

Our gentle approach to rosé winemaking ensures the retention of the precise color and flavors present in the grapes at harvest. This 2023 rosé exhibits our trademark  array of super fresh, crisp strawberry and raspberry flavors, with hits of lemon zest and pomelo. The alluring natural acidity adds tension ands sustains the wine throughout its focused, aromatic finish.
