2023 Amevive Rose of Graciano Estate Ibarra-Young Vyd Los Olivos, USA Nikka precise wine showing rich mineralityThis wine comes from a small block at Ibarra Young planted in the late 90s. This block has been farmed organically since inception, and what's growing on the understory throughout the year is proof. This block is covered in native purple lupine in the springtime, and transitions to the later blooming native Spanish lotus in the early summer. The floor is consistently covered in dainty pink and purple flowers for the majority of the growing season.
