"The 2025 Vin Gris is a blend of Gamay and Trousseau done in the style of a light-bodied red wine more than a Rose. It's crunchy, zesty, super fresh and an absolute joy, channeling peppery Gamay character and hallmark rosewater Trousseau notes. Spritzes of orange zest lift the rounded, gently creamy finish. There's a lovely sense of harmony and suppleness here, but the 2025 conveys intent, character and complexity through and through. It's one of the finest Roses I've tasted this year."

"The 2024 Vin Gris is exactly the type of 'red" Rosš I've been excited about recently. Lively notes of strawberry, Red Vines candy, juicy blood orange, basil and a lick of sea salt linger through the buzzy, animated finish. This is absolutely crushable but seriously complex."

"A blend of 70% Gamay and 30% Trousseau, the 2024 Vin Gris straddles the line between a light red and a rosš, offering a textbook example of the style by way of Ballad Canyon. Quenching, vibrant and beaming from front to back, it combines a candied, red-fruited profile with melon accents and a streak of salinity through the finish."
