Rosella's Vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands sits at elevations that push 2,200 feet, where cold Pacific air off Monterey Bay keeps ripening slow and acidity intact — conditions that drew Clarice Wine Company to this site. For the 2019, fruit from the Pommard clone and Pisoni Selection blocks was harvested together on September 21st, with 66.9% retained as whole clusters placed at the tank bottom. Spontaneous fermentation began after roughly nine days; the wine drained directly to barrel at completion, with only 62.5% of barrels making the final cut. Expect dark cherry, dried herb, and firm but fine-grained tannins.
