Ode to Lulu is based around ancient Mourvèdre grown in the delta sands of Oakley and Antioch. These 120+ year old vines put out balanced crops of deeply flavored fruit with great natural acidity that are a perfect vehicle for delicious rosé. Picked specifically for rosé at lower potential alcohol and whole-cluster pressed, the wine is both vibrant and dense, filled with grapefruit, stone fruit, and herbs. For us, the best rosé reflects a balance of seeming antonyms— vibrant but dense, pale but rich, delicate but mouthfilling, airy but grounded—and this is our goal each year we make the wine.
