Grown in the glacier etched soils of Parallel 44’s vineyards, we offer this delicate rose’ wine that is sure to please your palate. Parallel 44 was amongst the first to plant the Petite Pearl grape in 2009 and became amongst the first winery in the world to release a wine made from the grape. Traditionally made into a dry, medium bodied red, every vintage of Petite Pearl has won prestigious awards. Steve, a maverick in the Wisconsin Wine industry, decided to try something new. He thought that with the growing interest in rose’ wines, he would offer wine drinkers another choice. Here, Petite Pearl grapes are vinted into a rose’ style, which means they were “pressed off” the skins immediately after picking. This is actually the second vintage of this popular rose’ wine that you may remember, formerly known as “Vivace.” Steve and Maria recommend this wine as the perfect start to an evening of tasty foods, delicious wines, and lively conversation.
