The 2020 Grandioso is the winery's oak-aged rosé (five months in seven- to nine-year-old French barriques), tasted about six weeks after bottling. It is a 66/30 blend of Merlot and Chardonnay, with dollops of others for the rest, very dry and coming in at 12.8% alcohol. This is the one that is typically the outlier because of the time in wood. The wood mutes the vibrant flavors you find on the winery's other pinks, like the Summer in a Bottle, but it also fleshes this out and gives it a more mouth-coating texture. This is the one you really should drink at the table with food. It's not so awful on its own, to be sure, but it has the stuffing and the serious demeanor to hold up to foods. It won't be as exciting on its own. It's certainly a great vintage for this, however. It might even age for a few years, but that will not likely be its highest and best use. ... More details

Region: New York

New York state has a relatively long history of wine-making and vineyard cultivation, with vineyards in the region dating back to the Dutch settlements of the 17th century. As such, the region has slowly discovered the unique qualities of their terroir, and has developed a distinctive set of grape varietals which have gone on to represent the state and make their wines both unique and highly regarded. New York state has four key wine producing areas – Lake Erie AVA, Finger Lakes AVA, Hudson River and Long Island, each making the most of their relatively cool climate and characterful terroirs. The strong blend of both traditional and contemporary wine making methods found in this region has led to New York state being responsible for many of the finest and most interesting wines to come out of the United States.

Country: United States

For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.
