title: Viento 2006 Chukar Ridge Vineyard Sangiovese (Columbia Valley (WA))
description: The Sangiovese grape makes some of the best bone-dry rosés in the Northwest; this being a prime example. The grapes were cold-soaked for four days, then fermented in neutral oak. The strawberry/pie cherry fruit is just ripe enough; the acids fresh and natural; the finish long and utterly satisfying. This should be chilled and enjoyed outdoors on a beautiful day.
variety: Sangiovese
designation: Chukar Ridge Vineyard
