Vin Di Pasqualina
Named after my Great Aunt-Pasqualina Lapetina. This is a dry-ish rosé that at first sniff seems sweet, but sweet is not a smell. It is a blend of three grapes, but the aroma and character come from Niagara. Add a few frozen grapes and a slice of peach to a glass, close your eyes and drift to the islands. Makes a killer sangria.
Rosé Wines
Rosé’s are just quirky by nature and most often are expressions of the desire of the wine maker. This is especially true in the new world where they pass in and out of vogue with the season. Old world bastions of serious rosé, like southern France, are long on tradition and identity. “Refreshing” is the descriptior we are always after in our rosé.

Vicarious Wine Tasting - Rosé
Dr. Stephen Strohlein reviews our rosé, Vin Di Pasqualina, in this vicarious tasting. This wine is named for Grandma Millie's aunt Pasqualina, who often went by 'Lina'. "She could really dance," Gram says. She was a regular at the Roseland Ballroom in the theatre district of New York during the 1910's and 20's. In her later years, Grandma Millie took her in to her home overlooking the vineyard and cared for her until she passed at 93.
