The 2025 Tigress Rosé of Grenache is a tribute to our proprietor and matriarch, Nada Simon. Known for her vibrant, magnetic presence, this wine captures her energy through a graceful,
Provence-inspired expression of Grenache.
Tasting Notes
Salmon pink, with expressive aromatics of white flowers and ripe summer peaches. Vibrant and energetic, with a graceful interplay of stone fruits and bright acidity. Refreshing and beautifully balanced, with a naturally lower alcohol, it is the quintessential summer Rosé—effortless, crisp, and inviting.

“The wine is made a la Provençale, highlighting the natural acidity derived from the grapes, then bottled within 6 months to capture the freshness and elegance.”
“In the pale-pink mode of a Provence rosé, this light-bodied (12.5% alcohol) wine offers subtle plum and raspberry aromas plus fresh and crisp cranberry and mineral flavors. Nicely dry and fresh. Drink now.”
“There are 150 cases of the 2021 Tigress Rosé of Grenache, sourced from a head-trained vineyard in Rutherford. Fermented cool in stainless steel and then kept on the lees for six months prior to bottling,… it’s flamingo-pink in hue, with aromas of strawberries, melon rind and lime zest. Picked on the early side, it’s medium-bodied (12.5% alcohol), taut and tart, with a crisp, vibrant finish.”
