Marianne's Rose 2021
Our 2021 Rose has a bright peach color. It shows notes of fresh strawberry, rhubarb, kiwi, guava, and cantaloupe. The delicate palate leads into a crisp acidic and berry sweet finish. The majority of the blend is Tempranillo from Christian’s and Marianne’s Vineyards in the Diamond Mine, with a solid splash of Sauvignon Blanc from Michael’s Vineyard. About 40% of the grapes were cold soaked for a few hours before they were whole-cluster pressed directly into the tank. 20% is “saignee” that was bled away from the Tempranillo grape skins before fermentation. The remaining is “saignee” from a blend of varietals dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon. The blend adds complexity to this delicate wine. The wine was all tank fermented and was filtered before bottling. Our Rose is terrific as an aperitif on a warm summer day, or paired with shrimp, prosciutto, baked ham, smoked salmon or a fresh salad.

Six Sigma Winery
The land of Six Sigma Ranch was first settled in the mid-1800s by about two dozen families, most of them living on 160-acre tracts. Several of the original family names are still connected with Six Sigma Ranch land or neighboring ranches: Asbill Creek, Copsey Creek, Hutchinson’s Range, Jim Dollar Mountain, Kouns Flat, Schwiers’ Flat.
The recorded history of Six Sigma Ranch dates to 1859 when William Daniel Asbill Sr. and his family settled close to our present gate on Spruce Grove Road. The family was of English heritage and had traveled in covered wagons from their former home in Dade County, Missouri. Over the years, the Asbills bought land from other settlers, and Asbill Ranch grew to 800 acres. Today this land covers the western part of Six Sigma Ranch. Both Michael’s and Else’s Vineyards were planted on former Asbill land.
