2024 Black Muscat, California

In 2022, the de Palma Family Vineyard, just miles away from our winery, crafted an exquisite and refreshing Black Muscat, demonstrating a lovely rosé-style wine. The grapes were harvested in late summer, and experienced a warm growing season, enhancing the varietal’s natural sweetness. Winemaking techniques included a gentle crushing and pressing to preserve the grape’s aromatic compounds.

This Black Muscat reveals a vibrant magenta hue, reminiscent of a summer sunset. On the palate, expect a gentle, natural fizz that enhances luscious notes of ripe blackberries, rose petals, and a hint of exotic spices. The wine’s balance is evident in the well-integrated acidity, creating a harmonious and lingering finish. Aged in stainless steel, this wine retains its varietal character and subtle complexity to its enchanting profile, making it an immediate favorite in the newly-opened Tasting Room.
