Wine Review: This clear and orangish pink colored Rosé from McCollum Heritage 91 opens with a clementine and nectarine bouquet with hints of grapefruit. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, super smooth, and fresh. The flavor profile is a mild nectarine and watermelon blend with notes of saline and white peach. I also detected hints of orange zest, chalky minerality, and a touch of mango. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity linger nicely. I would pair this mouthwatering Rosé with fish tacos with a mango salsa. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This is a seriously delicious Rosé. It has loads of red fruited aromas—pomegranate, watermelon, strawberry—but with an underpinning of tangerine peel and tarragon that lend complexity. It is vibrant and juicy with enough structure to pair well with anything you’re eating for dinner tonight.

Winemaker Interview Series – Brian Pruett – Dry Creek Vineyard – Feb 2026

On Wednesday, February 25, 2026, we interviewed Brian Pruett. Brian is the winemaker at Dry Creek Vineyard. We covered eight wines during the visit. We started with Chenin Blanc and a single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, both from the 2024 vintage. Then we tried three single-vineyard and one historic-field-blend Zinfandel from the 2022 vintage. As you will recall, we really liked 2022 as a Zinfandel vintage. Finally, we wrapped up with their 2021 Red Blend and their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2022 vintage. It was a great tasting and a lot of fun. In this post, you can learn what we learned about Brian and the history of the winery and read our reviews of all of these impressive wines.
