ROSÉ OF CABERNET
The Dakota Shy Rosé of Cabernet is made in the saignée-style. We “bleed” small volumes of juice from our freshly harvested and crushed Cabernet tanks and then ferment those in stainless steel barrels. Using a range of white wine yeasts and a long cool fermentation between 45 to 50 degrees – we craft a complex, dry and refreshing Rose.
