TASTING NOTES

At the base of Pritchard Hill in Napa Valley, Dakota Shy blends rich history with modern winemaking. Established in 1836, our estate features redwoods, magnolias, and olive groves. Acquired in 2014, it now produces exceptional wines from Napa Valley’s premier vineyards. Experience the perfect fusion of historical charm and winemaking excellence.

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.
