"A clean mouthful of fruit with a crisp bright finish,"
the words of Kris Chau, a magical artist, tattoo poker and conjurer of this label sum it up pretty well. In 2022, this direct-to-press intentional rosé is all from Oldfield Vineyard in Yakima Valley. This bone dry wine is classically pale provencal style rosé with bright crispness. Notes of strawberry, watermelon rind, fresh tarragon, and citrus blossom abound.
We're inspired by taking the name KIND STRANGER quite literally and turning toward others around us. We've seen our national landscape shift a bit recently and we feel it's as important as ever to be a real kind stranger in the world. Proceeds from this wine benefit Mary’s Place at the local level here in Seattle and the International Rescue Committee on a broader scale, please click the links to see the important work they do. Cheers!
