oui non — 2023

aperol spritz 2.0

This bottle is just as zippy and bright as its color suggests — a light, juicy, and refreshing rosé to quench any thirst. Think of it like grown-up cherry cola. With notes of muddled raspberry, fresh cranberry, and maraschino liqueur, it’s sunny and coy; your ideal first drink of the day. In texture, it’s round and plush (but not rich), with a sturdy acid backbone.

This co-ferment of chardonnay, merlot, pinot noir, and seyval blanc is the sort of wine that will disappear quickly (trust us, we know)((oui non)). 

$22 / 750ml bottle
