"14th Hour Rosé
Blend: 2020 Grenache | Syrah | Mourvèdre
Appellation: Washington State
Notes: Fruit-forward, floral notes, strawberry
Palate: Easy-drinking, lean/high acidity, juicy red fruits
Taste Like: A great time after a long day!
About the wine: This Rosé is made using the direct to press method. Grapes are kept cold during and after picking until taken straight to the press where the pale pink juice is separated from the grape skins. Cold fermentation from there helps to retain the delicate fruit and floral aromas in the wine, and the end result is a light, lean, and refreshing Rosé from USA TODAY's #1 ranked wine region two years running.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR CO-FOUNDER, DREW
"When we were approached by Nurse Blake to collaborate on a wine, our answer was an emphatic, "Yes!" Blake has done so much to empower and advocate for nurses in such a short time. His work is funny, truthful, and impactful. All things we at Nocking Point align with. We hope you enjoy Blake's rosé and when drinking it are inspired to care for others...as well as yourself.
