| Rosé offers are the wine world’s own special version of consumerism gone mad. Like holiday displays at department stores, every year the shit comes earlier and earlier and there’s nothing we can do about it. Sorry. That said, on the other hand rosé is sorta delicious and it does pair with summer and people like it and you’ll probably need some. Consider just ordering a bunch from us and being done with it? Here’re two quick sales points. First: With the help of our growers, we have been able to keep the tariff damage to a minimum. Bio-D Beurer and organic Migot rosé only up (at most) 50 cents a bottle! Seehof (which was ridiculously priced) up only a buck a bottle max – Stein we are keeping at NO INCREASE. Second: COOL CLIMATE ROSÉ is where it’s at. Seriously, go to Provence, that’s great. Just take a rosé from Germany (or northern France) if you want that natural, freshy mcfresh, lip-smacking ACID. Check it out – bottles and some mags! These are going to be limited so tell us what you want and we’ll do our best. C’mon, rosé in Riesling mag bottles? #sexy Deadline is Friday March 6th – so about two weeks. That’s when we’ll make allocations where we have to and THANK YOU. And apologies for emailing about rosé in February. We’re not happy about it either. Email orders@vomboden.com |
2019 Beurer Rosé – ~ $22/bottle 2019 Beurer Rosé MAGS (6 x 1.5L) – ~$52/1.5L Jochen Beurer makes a rosé that drinks like biodynamic Gatorade – this wine zings: it is pure energy. It is fresh like a spring garden around 6am just as the overeager sun pokes its gonzo eye above the horizon, pushing away the wet dew. This rosé is a saignée of Trollinger, Portugieser, Zweigelt and Spätburgunder, all farmed biodynamically and fermented with native yeast. ARRIVES APRIL |
2019 Migot Rosé “Vin Gris” – ~ $22/bottle NV Migot Rosé Gamay “Méthode Traditionnelle” – ~ $26/bottle LORRAINE IS THE PROVENCE OF LORRAINE!!! The Mosel River begins in Alsace but spends most of its time running north through the Lorraine, the ignored little-brother of Alsace. This is the homeland of rosé, here called “Vin Gris.” For those looking for wines of finesse and delicacy, this is a thrilling region and there is no one better than the young Camille Migot: all hand-harvested, certified organic, all wild-yeast fermentations, NO chaptalization. SERIOUS. The Vin Gris is the calling card of the region, layered rosé that carries the nervous energy of the north. ARRIVES APRIL – BRUT IN STOCK NOW! |
2019 Seehof Pinot Noir Rosé – ~ $19/bottle This is one of the most popular rosés we offer. In this region, limestone reigns supreme, not slate. Verily, Pinot Noir is very at home and Florian’s rosé highlights the transparent, crystal-clear freshness of great Pinot rosé, at an absurd price because it’s, well, German, and NOT from Provence. ARRIVES LATE MARCH/APRIL |
2019 Shelter Pinot Noir Rosé – ~$26/bottle Shelter makes extraordinarily delicate, fragrant Pinot Noir in Baden, a region mostly known for wines that tend to be big bruisers with a lot of lumber. This rosé is ultra bright and tart, whispering intensity and lacy minerality that characterize every wine from this humble husband-and-wife team. SILLY LIMITED! ARRIVES LATE APRIL / MAY |
2019 Stein Rosé – ~$23/bottle
2019 Stein Rosé MAGS (6 x 1.5) – ~$57/1.5L
2019 Stein Rosecco (sparkling rosé) – $26/bottle
Our favorite rebel/activist in the Mosel, Ulli Stein is one of the world’s most soulful growers. This is one of the few rosés from the Mosel and has become a cult favorite. Shimmering, dry with rigorous acidity. ARRIVES APRIL/MAY
