Rosewood’s winemaker – Natalie Spytkowsky approaches her craft with a reverence for both the purity of the raw product and an eye for how the wines will eventually pair with food. Rosewood wines are produced via a style of vineyard driven winemaking that is engrained as a mantra – “from earth to bottle.” It begins with an understanding that the quality of the wine is directly related to the soil and the quality of our honey. We believe in growing grapes with intense and complex grape flavors and it is these flavors that are at the core of our wines. The winemaker’s hand is used to bring these flavors together into a cohesive whole; to protect and promote intense aromatics; and to present full bodied, elegantly textured and seamless wines.
We make limited quantities of mead and premium vinifera varietals that blend old world winemaking with Niagara fruit. The styl e of winemaking is directly tied to the vineyards, striving for lush, optimally ripe, concentrated fruit flavors and balanced acidity in all wines. At Rosewood we also celebrate this unique gift of honey creating meads with structure, complexity and balance – a true artistic challenge.
At each step of the winemaking process, from pruning to harvest date, to how the blends are put together, we let our senses be our guide. We rethink the strategy every vintage, shun recipes, and refrain from historical bias. This not only fills each wine with unique character, but fills our own lives with renewed vigor and enthusiasm each vintage. At the core of our winemaking philosophy, is our aim to produce wines that are true to the honey source and grape variety, and true to the high quality and the distinct terroir of the estate vineyards.
