Rosé All Day

As the weeks stretch on in these crazy times, we hope that you are staying healthy.  Each week this month we will be offering something special, because in the absence of connecting with you in person, we hope we can connect in other ways.   

As the days are getting longer and slightly warmer, and most of us are at home waiting for 5pm, we can't think of a better time to release our new 2018 Rosé of Pinot Noir. This Rosé is that most magical, effortless of wines...crisp, light, deceptively easy-seeming on the surface, brooding just beneath and bursting with flavors of strawberry, apricot, citrus and clove, pairing with just about anything or nothing at all.  No need to wait until 5pm. Enjoy a glass at lunch, or at 3pm on its own just because.  

We are offering our 2018 Rosé of Pinot for just $18/bottle (normally $21) for this release week only, because we all need a little of that summertime feeling in a glass. Produced from Pinot Noir from the Gremlin Vineyard in Sonoma, we made just 90 cases (4 barrels).  

We also still have a little of our screamingly delicious 2017 Rosé left at the winery.  We are offering this until it's gone at $15/bottle.  (6 bottle minimum orders for shipping apply).  10% discount applies on all 12 bottle orders.  

Stay healthy and happy!

Spring Fever!

Spring has arrived! These early spring days have been rainy and cool but the growing season has officially started in Napa Valley. There has been an extraordinary amount of rain in Northern California this year -- the vineyards are thriving with mustard and wildflowers, the hills are a vibrant green, and flowering trees are awash in white and pink blooms. It's a beautiful time to visit Napa Valley, so make an appointment with us here and come taste our nascent 2018 vintage from barrel.

2017 Sauvignon Blanc:

Spring Fling

We can hardly believe it but Spring really and truly is just around the corner.  And that means two things for us here at Crosby Roamann.  First, it's time for our members to receive their first shipment of the year, and we're pretty excited about what will be in those boxes ...

• 2015 Merlot, Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley
• 2017 Sauvignon Blanc, Rutherford, Napa Valley
• 2017 Pinot Noir "Kim Giles Vineyard" Napa Valley
• 2017 Pinot Noir "Gremlin Vineyard" Los Carneros, Sonoma

You can find tasting notes, sign up for our shipment and book tastings online at http://www.crosbyroamann.com/membership All members receive special pricing, tours and tastings, special gifts and swag throughout the year. Stay connected with us at @crosbyroamann

Second, we believe in spring cleaning, so on the first Saturday of Spring we'll be hosting an event in the tasting room called Crosby Roamann Declassified to blow out all the odds and ends that never make it to store shelves or restaurant wine lists. These are the little wines that we produce in the micro-est of micro-productions.  Boxes start at $40, and if it's anything like last year, we recommend you get here early.
 

• Doors open for members at 11am.
• High Noon For Everyone Else.
• Members of the trade -- contact us to reserve a box!

Finally, thank you to everyone who joined us at our Crosby Roamance Rosé release party in February!  We had a blast hosting our first evening in the cellar. You can find photos of the evening here.

Hope to see you Saturday, March 23rd!  Cheers,  Juliana & Sean
