The diversity of these cool climate areas combined with an elongated growing season creates a wine with intensity of fruit flavor, structure, and fresh vibrant acidity.

Angels & Cowboys Brut Rosé is an all-California sparkler made with the traditional method of secondary fermentation. Using traditional Champagne grapes – 73% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, 2% Pinot Meunier, the fruit is sourced mostly from Mendocino and Sonoma counties. 12-months en tirage (aging on the lees), gives this berry-scented sparkler a creamy mouthfeel to balance the crisp acidity.

Angels & Cowboys Sonoma Country Rosé 2022 This rosé manages to combine the ripe fruit of Sonoma, with the crispness and pale color you expect from Provence. Made in a traditional style called "œil de perdrix" meaning partridge's eye in French, more commonly called Vin Gris - or grey wine - it is made with very little skin contact for a more delicate style.

2023 marks their third year of their ‘Pulling Corks and Filling Forks’ program, donating a portion of proceeds from every bottle of wine sold to World Central Kitchen (WCK), helping fund meals for those affected by natural and manmade disasters.

The wines are available direct from the winery, at wine.com and are nationally distributed at select retailers, including Whole Foods.
