Wine Review: This clear and coral colored Rosé from Ultimate opens with a very shy red cherry bouquet with hints of wet stone. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, slightly creamy, delicate, and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a green apple and mild pink grapefruit pith blend with notes of stony minerality and gentle nectarine. I also detected hints of lime zest, honeysuckle, and green tea. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity fade away nicely. I would pair this crowd-pleasing Rosé with a grilled mahi-mahi sandwich. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Delicate vibrant pale pink that has copper tinges. On the nose, it is a unique combination of classic Provençal raspberry, blood orange, berry pie, fresh violet, and geranium. Perfect with grilled chicken vegetable skewers. Ultimate Provence will also pair extremely well with charcuterie, grilled fish, and sushi.

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.
