RISIBILITY (Rose of Mourvedre) 2022
RISIBILITY (Rose of Mourvedre) 2022

RISIBILITY; "the ability or disposition to laugh; humorous awareness of the ridiculous and absurd" is a great thing and essential to a well lived life because, as John Prine used to sing, "It's a big old goofy world."  Why not treat yourself?  Pour a glass of rose and listen to a favorite song that you haven't heard in a while.

 

RISIBILITY is 100% Mourvedre sourced from the Elephant Mountain Vineyard within Washington's Rattlesnake Hills AVA.

 

Dry rose wines from the Rhone region are classically paired with light salads, light pasta and rice dishes, especially with seafood, raw and lightly cooked shellfish and grilled fish and goats’ cheeses. These are all great pairings with the 2021 RISIBILITY.  Other, less traditional pairings include grilled cheese sandwiches, mushroom quiche, artichoke barigoule, Asian food, grilled chicken, grilled pork, and margherita pizza.  Perfect hot weather drinking!

Seattle Wine Awards - Double Gold - 95 points

Great Northwest Wine Competition - Gold

 

Purple Cellars - 92 points - 100% Mourvedre.  A pretty deep pink and copper in the glass.  Aromas of grapefruit and lemon zest with hints of grass.  The palate is focused, with a burst of juicy ruby grapefruit and lemon, and mint.  Mouthfeel is pleasant, soft and smooth, with balanced rounded acidity.  Surprising notes of pine nut emerges with mildly drying tannins lingering on the finish.  A rose with some nice complexity.  Should pair well with a nutty cheese. e.g. Gruyere.  Worked amazingly well with a very simple salmon!

 

Sam I. Am

Say! I like this! I do! I like it!

And I would drink it in a boat. 

And I would drink it with a goat...

And I will drink it, in the rain.

And in the dark. And on a train.

And in a car. And in a tree.

It is so good, so good, you see!

So I will drink it in a box.

And I will drink it with a fox.

And I will drink it in a house.

And I will drink it with a mouse.

And I will drink it here and there.

Say! I will drink it anywhere!
