Introduction:
The 2025 Love You Bunches Rosé from Stolpman Vineyards is a bright, joyful rosé that highlights Grenache’s vibrant fruit and refreshing energy. Although current producer notes are for the 2024 release, this 2025 bottling continues the tradition of light, crisp rosé crafted for enjoyment and immediacy, with a focus on pure fruit and lively acidity.
Terrior:
Sourced from vineyards across California’s Central Coast AVA—including Grenache fruit from San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties—the wine reflects a warm Mediterranean climate tempered by cool coastal breezes. These growing conditions promote aromatic intensity, balanced ripeness, and vibrant natural acidity.
Appearance:
Delicate salmon-pink with brilliant clarity in the glass, showing off its youthful rosé color and energetic presence.
Nose:
Aromas of wild strawberry, watermelon, red currant, and citrus zest open first, with hints of white blossom, rose petal, and a touch of mint adding floral lift.
Palate:
Light- to medium-bodied and energetically fresh, the palate delivers crunchy red fruit—strawberry, raspberry, and blood orange—balanced by crisp lemon-lime acidity and a sleek, silky texture. The wine’s structural lift and dry profile make it exceptionally refreshing.
Finish:
Clean, crisp, and thirst-quenching, with lingering citrus and strawberry notes that keep the palate bright and ready for another sip.

-
Meat: Grilled chicken skewers, lemon-herb turkey, shrimp salad

Vegetarian: Tomato-burrata salad, grilled summer vegetables, couscous with herbs

Overall Impression:
