Paradigm Rose of Merlot 2015Napa Valley

This 2015 Rosé from Paradigm is made of 100% Merlot grapes from their Oakville Estate.  The color is a beautiful salmon pink.  The aromatics are clean and fresh of strawberries, honeysuckle, and pink grapefruit.  Crisp acidity and flavors that match the aromas carry the wine across the palate. Refreshing and easy to drink, this wine is very enjoyable. - Winemaker, Heidi Barrett

Paradigm Winery is owned and managed by Ren and Marilyn Harris, two winegrowers with extraordinarily deep roots in Napa Valley. Marilyn's grandparents immigrated from Italy to Napa Valley in 1890, while Ren's family came to California in 1769. Marilyn and Ren moved to Napa Valley in the 1960's and settled into their home just east of where Paradigm sits today. Through a career in vineyard real estate, Ren learned much about the diverse growing regions in Napa Valley. In 1976, when they decided to purchase vineyards of their own, Oakville was the clear choice. Paradigm Winery was founded several years later and began producing wine with the 1991 vintage.
