Sarah’s Patio Red is a sweet, light red wine made in the style of a rosé. The grapes were whole-cluster pressed, as they would be for many white wines, but with Norton, there’s so much color in the skins and pulp that the juice at this very early processing stage has plenty of color and yields a deep red hue. The fermenting juice and wine never see any oak, and is bottled early with lots of natural CO2 (carbon dioxide), with a significant amount of residual sugar left in the wine. The result is a semi-sweet, refreshing wine with lots of spritz. Enjoy refrigerator-cold.
