After blending the DVX each year, we set aside part of the blend and add a small amount of red Pinot Noir to give the wine its beautiful rose color. The 2020 vintage gifted us this elegant DVX Rosé. The small addition of red wine to the blend shifted the personality of the wine in favor of Pinot Noir, but without sacrificing the contribution of the Chardonnay.

About This Wine
After blending the DVX each year, we set aside part of the blend and add a small amount of red Pinot Noir to give the wine its beautiful rose color. A shorter aging time on the yeast as compared to DVX allows the red fruit flavors to express themselves in balance with the toasty, yeast notes. The 2020 vintage gifted us this elegant DVX Rosé. The small addition of red wine to the blend shifted the personality of the wine in favor of Pinot Noir, but without sacrificing the contribution of the Chardonnay.
