Winemaker's Notes
The 2017 Truchard Pinot Noir Rosé is an elegant expression of Napa Valley’s Carneros region, crafted entirely from estate-grown Pinot Noir grapes. Truchard was established in 1973 by Dr. Tony Truchard, is a family-owned winery that spans over 270 acres in the cool-climate Carneros AVA. This area is renowned for its foggy mornings and breezy afternoons, conditions ideal for cultivating Pinot Noir with vibrant acidity and nuanced flavors. The 2017 vintage was produced using the saignée method, where a portion of juice is "bled off" from the Pinot Noir fermentation, resulting in a rosé that captures the grape's delicate character.
In the glass, the wine presents a pale salmon hue, offering aromas of fresh strawberries, watermelon, and rose petals. On the palate, it delivers crisp flavors of red berries, citrus zest, and a hint of minerality, all balanced by bright acidity and a clean finish. This rosé pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including grilled salmon, goat cheese salads, or light pasta primavera, making it a versatile choice for warm-weather dining or as a refreshing aperitif.
