2023 Divergence “Creek Road Vineyard” Gamay Rose | 91pts 🔥 Member pricing!

This wine is aging very well. It’s kinda funny mentioning that for a 2023, but for a rosé, three years of age can sometimes be too much. Not for this Divergence Rosé. Actually, I think this is drinking even better now than it was on release in early 2024. It’s also a lot of fun: 91% Gamay Noir and 9% Sauvignon Blanc. And right now, the Sauvignon Blanc is totally popping!

The nose shows violet, cherry, wild raspberry, peach, and gooseberry. The palate remains fresh and crisp, with pinpoint acidity. The texture is just creamy enough to bring a welcome change of pace and balance that sky-high acidity.

In terms of flavours, you’ll find a great mix of red fruit and citrus, led by raspberry and grapefruit. The finish brings a nice spicy element and a surprising amount of complexity. This wine is in a really good place right now, and it’s another reminder that well-made rosé doesn’t always need to be drunk as young as possible.
