Bedrock Ode to Lulu’ Rosé

This 2024 Rosé is a nod to the rich and complex styles from Bandol in the south of France. True to the Bandol style, it’s a Mourvèdre-based blend with a sprinkle of Grenache and Syrah. But this wine is also distinctly Californian, sourced from centenarian vineyards in Contra Costa and Sonoma Counties. It has a fruity, herbaceous nose with notes of grapefruit and juicy stone fruit.

The depth from the Mourvèdre really comes through on the creamy palate, but with a good dose of acidity. If it weren’t in a box, you would never guess it was a boxed wine.
