Rosé on the Dailé with Malene
It is hard to believe that our 2022 season is coming to a close at the Malene Scene. This year has brought some changes and given our team the opportunity to explore new ways to better serve you, our loyal Rosé lover. We hope you have enjoyed the new events and rosé releases this season.
While the Malene Scene begins to settle into a slumber (last day is Sunday, October 30th) for the remainder of the year, we do not want you to forget about us because we certainly will not forget you.
As you already know, our reserve rosés are produced specifically for our wine club and tasting room. Limited in production and made with intention, our bottles of pink will get you through any occasion. We want to make sure that you are sufficiently stocked up until next season because after all, we have rosé vibes all year long and with the holidaés around the corner… you should not be without your favorite bottles of pink! Check in with our team at the Malene Scene or email wineclub@malenewines.com to stock up!
Featured Wine – 2021 Camp 4 Carignan
Our featured wine this shipment was new to our line up this year, 2021 Camp 4 Carignan. This was just one of those mistakes that really paid off in the long run. The vineyard was supposed to send us Cinsault, but we got Carignan by mistake. The grapes look so similar that by the time we noticed, the juice was already pressed. The outcome of our mistake was amazing and made for a deliciously available and forward Rosé of Carignan. This rosé makes its debut with notes of honeydew and white peach, bright acidity and fresh flavors of stone fruit and orange zest. Its invigorating and crisp finish make this rosé perfect for sipping or enjoy with your favorite triple crème brie or goat cheese.
