From The Côte D’Azur to Here
For decades now, wine lovers have looked straight to the sea-sprayed coast of Provence for the ultimate in divine, elegant, mouthwatering rosé.
That’s where the mother-daughter team of Melinda Kearney and Michèle Ouellet found inspiration for one of our favorite rosés being made in California.
The gorgeous 2023 Lorenza True Rosé is a California-born gem that delivers its Provençal inspiration in every sip. Hailing from one of the most storied regions in the Golden State, it’s a beautifully crafted rarity: a rosé made from vines that can top a half-century in age. It’s also the only wine this woman-owned winery makes, and it’ll have you dreaming of lazy days under the umbrellas at a Côte d’Azur café.
Kearney and Ouellet sourced their grapes from vineyards that allow them to combine all the attributes they look for in a rosé. Built on Mourvèdre for brightness, it’s got a healthy dose of Carignan that comes from old, head-trained vines, yielding tiny, concentrated grapes. Cinsault and Grenache round out the blend.
Kearney and Ouellet press the grapes exceptionally gently then ferment them long and slow in stainless-steel tanks to preserve fresh-fruit flavor and vibrant acidity. The result is a peach-hued everyday drinker that glows like its Provençal inspiration but delivers a uniquely Californian character.
