Lawer's rosé bears a paper label that does
not make any comparisons to differentiate
it from White Zin or blush wines. Instead,
the label highlights the Syrah variety and
the estate vineyards designation. Typically,
Lawer makes 230-280 cases of rosé, about
1 2 % o f t h e w i n e r y ' s t o t a l 2 , 0 0 0 - c a s e
production.
To show off the glowing color, Carol Shel-
ton's Wild Thing rosé employs screenprinting
by Bergin Glass. The winery bottles some 900-
1,000 cases of it every year, about 5% to 6%
of total production. Always predominantly
Carignane (80%-90%), the percentage of bleed
wines from other varieties is more variable,
although they include Zinfandel, Petit Sirah
and Cabernet, as available.
Retailing at $15 per bottle, the rosé is sold
through distribution in some 20 states as well
as at least one bottle per member in the May
wine club shipment.
Pedroncelli sells 27% of its rosé DtC, and
the remainder is sold through national distribu-
tion at $15 per bottle. Although the category
waned 10 years ago or more, the wine recently
has been selling out earlier than expected due
to wider market acceptance, with a spring push
after February.
