“This is one of an extremely small number of rosés to come out of the Rocks District and is a consistent standout. A very visually appealing pale salmon color, the aromas offer notes of wet stone, strawberry, orange rind and herb. A hyper-flavorful, rich, exquisitely balanced, textural palate follows. It hangs on the finish—a complete stunner.”

"The 2022 Rosé Grenache Edith presents is pretty pink-and orange-hued, wafting with notes of wild strawberries, citrus peels and hints of gravel dust. This is deeply textural, nearly creamy in feel, with crisp minerality and zesty acidity to balance as perfumed citrus-tinged fruits swirl throughout. The 2022 leaves a sweet-and-sour sensation on the palate, tapering off with youthful tension while keeping the mouth watering for more."

"Aged for 10 months in concrete and stainless steel, Edith opens with sweet and tangy aromas of strawberries, tangerines and a touch of spicy Ligurian olive oil. The fruit-driven palate is a ripe mix of Meyer lemons, strawberries, saline and tangelos. This is my favorite Edith since Jean Stapleton. —M.A."

"A coral-colored rose with pretty notes of peaches, herbs, watermelon and grapefruit. It's refreshing and delicious, dry, with a medium body and a bright and lively finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now."

"The 2022 Grenache Rose Edith is made with Grenache from the Armada vineyard. It manages to walk the line between medium pink and salmon-orange. The nose is delicate and floral, with pink flowers, cranberry and cherry essence with hints of plum blossom. Medium-bodied and with a straightforward mouthfeel, the rose is fresh and ready for action. The wine is balanced on the palate and ends with a delightful finish that captures the freshness of a rose fermented and aged in concrete egg and stainless steel. Only 1,788 bottles were produced."

"Orange blossom, tart strawberries, and some floral, spicy notes all emerge from the 2022 Edith Rose, a juicy, medium-bodied rose that has a Cotes du Rhone-like style in its texture and acidity. Think of it as lying between a fresh, simple Provencal rose and a richer Tavel. It will drink nicely over the coming summer months."

"The 2020 Grenache Rosé Edith is a gorgeous orange/pink color at the core and fans out to a salmon-colored rim. The nose is bright"
