The story

The story behind Butternut

Butternut Rose traces to BNA Wine Group, founded in 2010 by winemaker Tony Leonardini, John Hooper and Gary Carr. The family owned Miller Family Wine Company bought the brand in 2020. Fruit comes largely from California's Central Coast and Paso Robles, and the wine is a still rose blended from red varieties such as Tempranillo, Pinot Noir and Grenache.

Skin contact is brief, just long enough to pull that pale pink before pressing and a cool fermentation. Watermelon, citrus and pale florals on the nose, strawberry and grapefruit on a crisp palate. The 2019 vintage took Bronze at the San Francisco Chronicle competition, the 2020 took Silver at San Francisco International, and the 2017 earned Bronze at TEXSOM.
