	2007 Foot-Stomped Syrah Rosé At Airfield Estates, we get our customers involved. Each year, during the second weekend in October, we have an annual foot stomping harvest celebration. This year Syrah grapes were foot stomped by adventurous wine drinkers. They jumped in harvest bins, rolled up their jeans, and got to work. If you have never experienced wine grapes between your toes, it is truly a one of a kind experience. This dry, medium-bodied Syrah Rosé imparts aromas and flavors of Bing Cherries and rhubarb. This wine should be served chilled and pairs with grilled salmon, saffron steamed mussels, and garlic and oil based sauces. View Winemaker Notes $16 Qty:
