Discovino Donna Rosé

Vintage: 2018
Varieties: 50% Sangiovese, 50% Syrah (El Pomar District)
Alcohol: 11.9% by vol.

Donna Rosé is modeled after the Corsican rosé ideal of “drinking a cloud.” A mainstay of Sunday barbecues, pool parties, and perfumed discotheques, Donna Rosé screams “rosé all day/rosé all night!” The Discovino sub-brand represents accessible, inclusive wines of finesse, inspired by the 1980s Balearic spirit. 

We sourced fruit from the west side of Paso Robles, where warm, sunny days contrast with cool nights blanketed in marine air. The extreme diurnal shift of 50°F+, coupled with limestone-studded soils, is an absolute dream for rosé production.

Production: 

• Direct to press, cold-settled, co-fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel

• Sequential fermentation of native yeast, selected yeasts, and native malolactic bacteria

• Aged on lees for 6 months in stainless steel

• Gently filtered, with minimal sulfur applied at bottling
