Lot 449
2023 Monterey County Rosé of Pinot Noir

$35/bottle under the original label

Lot 449 is made by an old school Carmel Valley winemaker specializing in Burgundian varietals to produce a deliciously bone dry 100% Rosé of Pinot Noir. Not widely distributed or sold online, the wine is only available at the winery or their downtown Carmel tasting room.

This beautifully tinted wine checks every box on the Rosé list as soon as the aromas hit your nose – strawberries, cherries, and earthy tones are backed by a dried herb bouquet. The palate entry is lively and bright, with additional strawberries cascading across the palate quickly followed by mouthwatering, stony acidity. The finish is bone dry, long and uplifted with delicate red fruits and earth – an utterly quaffable experience.
