The Story: Crafted by Bedrock Wine Co., "Ode to Lulu" is a loving tribute to the late, legendary Lulu Peyraud of Domaine Tempier—the iconic matriarch of Bandol, France, who helped put world-class savory rosé on the map. Sourced from dry-farmed, ancient vines planted as far back as the late 1800s, this California bottle captures that grand, traditional Mediterranean spirit.
Why You'll Love Me: It balances ethereal lightness with impressive old-vine complexity. Don't let its pale, elegant color fool you; it bursts with beautiful aromatics of wild strawberry, watermelon rind, and pink grapefruit, layered with hints of wild herbs, tarragon, and a touch of savory spice. It is bone-dry, crisp, and beautifully structured, leaving you with a clean, lip-smacking finish.
