Old Vine Ranch
Rosé 2025
California
Inspired by Marietta’s original cult wine, Old Vine Red, the Old Vine Rosé draws on the same simple focus to make delicious wines that bring people together. Made in a Provençale, direct-press style from some of the oldest Syrah and Grenache vines in California, it is fresh, nuanced, and perfectly balanced to enjoy with food or on its own. As always with the “OVR” wines, it delivers a lot more substance and pleasure than one might expect. This rosé opens with a radiant bouquet of ruby grapefruit, orange sorbet, and potpourri, underscored by a whisper of fresh mint. Its hue evokes rose quartz and sunlit sandstone, shimmering with exceptional purity and vitality. Its palate has a burst of tangy crispness, succulent red currant, and a texture steeped in minerality that lingers gracefully. Hints of pink peppercorn encircle a plush core, finishing with just the right touch of zesty brightness. Invigorating, spirited, and utterly delightful.
VINEYARD
The fruit for this wine comes from Marietta’s McDowell Valley estate, which is renowned for Rhône varieties and home to some of the oldest Syrah and Grenache Gris in California. These unique vines are six feet tall, head-trained, and dry farmed. This vineyard, in a valley surrounded by mountains, benefits from the cold sink that ensures cools nights and preserves acidity and freshness.
WINEMAKING
Fruit is hand-harvested early in the season and whole-cluster pressed before stainless steel fermentation. Aged in neutral oak barrels for three months with weekly lees stirring softens the edges of this bright and vibrant rosé.
VINTAGE
The 2025 vintage saw steady ripening, slightly cooler temperatures, yielded rosé wines of great focus and freshness.
TASTING NOTE
Old Vine Rosé is bright and juicy with lovely mineral and lemon zest notes wrapped around a stone-fruit core. Enjoy this fresh, vibrant wine anytime with your favorite combination of friends, family, and food.
