Frog’s Leap La Grenouille Rouganté Pink 2022
John Williams and his son, Rory Williams, have at all times mixed natural viticulture and a standard model of winemaking with a humorousness. La Grenouille Rouganté (roughly translated as The Blushing Frog) is a Provencal-style rosé produced from old-vine carignan grown in Mendocino County. Complete-cluster urgent lends a touch of tannic bitterness from the stems, and minimal time on the skins provides a stunning salmon-pink coloration. It’s a perfect wine for saying goodbye to a scorching late summer season’s day, because the solar slips under the horizon and site visitors noise yields to the tune of cicadas and the dulcet baritone of frogs. ABV: 12 p.c. BW: 460 grams (Gentle).
