Saini Vineyards Dry Creek Valley Rose 2019
About the wine
Light, bright, easy-sipping Rosé from a Sonoma specialist
- This dry, pale pink Rosé is a refreshing blend of Grenache, Carignan and Sangiovese, with bright red fruit flavors and a touch of citrus, like perky lime zest. It’s an ideal easy-sipper for relaxing outdoors on a warm spring afternoon.
- 2019 was a near-perfect grapegrowing season in Sonoma’s Dry Creek Valley, with just the right amount of heat early in the season, balanced by mild temperatures throughout the summer, resulting in grapes with superior flavor development.
- Winemaker Mike Saini is a champion of Dry Creek Valley who lives to showcase his favorite vineyards and varieties of the region – for a top-notch example of quintessential Dry Creek Rosé, look no further!
Best before
This wine is perfect to drink now! Once you open your first bottle you will soon see why the rest of your bottles of this Rosé won't get a chance to age.
Serving advice
This crisp, bright Rosé will be most pleasing chilled. You will want to make sure you have more chilled and ready to open as this wine leaves you wanting more!
Food match
This wine is the perfect standalone wine. But, it also pairs beautifully with a large variety of foods. I personally love this wine with Prosciutto-wrapped grilled figs with our special honey, or crostini with local chevre, roasted plums and black pepper.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mike Saini
In June 2019, the Sainis – a 4th generation farming family in Dry Creek and Alexander Valley – opened up their first tasting room to feature wines crafted and made on their family land. They were forced to close less than a year later, following state COVID closures.
“We’ve closed our doors twice for crisis,” Mike said – for the Kincade Fire (Nov 2019) and now for the COVID-19 pandemic. With limited restaurant and DTC sales, the Sainis are inundated with wine, with no room to bottle future vintages. Cue Angels!
Lucky us. Mike Saini has a real passion for Sonoma, coupled with a truly special familiarity with every vineyard block responsible for the wines he makes. Look forward to a jaw-dropping introduction to Dry Creek Valley from a family who loves it most.
