January Wine Notes

January Wine Notes

Happy New Year from all of us at Rove Winery! January is a season of quiet beauty on the highest point of the Leelanau Peninsula and the perfect time to slow down and savor winter at the farm.

Enjoy new Winter Happy Hour specials, snowshoeing in the vines once the snow arrives, and cozy fire pits with Winter Sangria every weekend. It is the ideal setting to gather, linger, and take in the peaceful winter views.

We are also excited to share a big announcement. This January we are launching Rove Family Rewards.

Rove Family:  Where every sip feels like coming home.

Earn points with every visit, redeem anytime, and enjoy personalized recommendations. Ask your tasting room attendant how to join. It is free and easy.

We cannot wait to welcome you back and start the new year together!

Wine of the Month 

2022 Cabernet Franc: The aroma of leather envelopes you, transporting you to shelves lined with well-loved classics. Baked cranberry adds a touch of warmth while anise leaves a hint of spice at the end of the chapter. On the palate, notes of black pepper and a velvet texture unfold.

Baked cranberries, black pepper, and a touch of tobacco. 

Hearty Winter Pairing Suggestions:

  • Braised short ribs or beef stew with root vegetables. The richness mirrors the wine’s depth while black pepper notes echo the spice.
  • Herb roasted pork tenderloin or pork loin with a cranberry or cherry compote to highlight the baked cranberry character.
  • Duck breast with a cranberry or balsamic reduction for a luxurious winter pairing that leans into the wine’s warmth

$32/ bottle and $12/glass (regular $40/bottle and $14/ glass)
