“Michael” and “David” are Michael and David Phillips, brothers whose family has farmed fruits and vegetables in the Lodi region since the 1850s and has cultivated wine grapes for nearly a century. Michael and David are the 5th generation of grape growers in the Phillips family and care for their vines with the future in mind. They have adopted some of the most progressive sustainable farming practices in the state. All 750 acres of their vineyards are third-party certified; starting with the 2011 vintage, 100% of the Lodi-grown fruit crushed at Michael David winery was certified sustainable.*

Comprised of Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Merlot from Phillips family vineyards, this rosé is truly one of a kind. Throughout the growing season, the berries were tasted in the vineyard to determine optimal picking time, with lower sugar and higher acidity in mind. Handpicked at the beginning of the harvest and in early morning to ensure the grapes stayed cool, the berries were then de-stemmed and whole cluster pressed. This creates a more delicate wine by reducing the contact time with the stems and skins. The wine was then fermented in cool temperatures and perfectly blended, resulting in a balanced, easy-sipping rosé.

Tasting Notes:
Pale salmon in color, the 2025 Michael David Rosé opens with aromas of  hibiscus, strawberry and tangerine. Light in body with vibrant acidity, flavors of nectarine, guava and pomegranate layer to create a stunning wine with a crisp, refreshing finish.
