Who thought that the wind generated from the flap of a butterfly wing could change the world... that this motion from such a delicate creature could create waves that travel oceans and the breeze that fills the mountains with fresh air. We are ever connected... trees, bees, plants and nature all talk to each other and serve a sacred purpose. The Monarch Challenge is set to enlighten, encourage and connect our communities to farm and live in unison with nature and give back to the delicate circle of life.

2023 The Monarch Challenge Rosé

The 2023 Monarch Challenge Rosé is a unique, coastal blend coming from our RAEN Pinot Noir lots, married with a block of beautiful, old vine Grenache, all hailing from organically farmed vineyards in line with the Monarch Challenge's goal of a cleaner, healthier, more brilliant planet. Vibrant aromas of fresh summer apricot, sun-kissed white peach, wild raspberry, and red grapefruit burst from the glass. On the palate, this coastal wine is incredibly lifted and bright, exuding flavors of stone fruit, flower petal, crushed rock and lemon zest, all held together with a racy acidity and a bright, lingering, mineral finish.

Produced and bottled by RAEN Winery. Proceeds support the Monarch Challenge and allows RAEN to donate to the Xerces Society & the Sonoma County Wildlife Rescue, two organizations dedicated to protecting our planet, supporting biodiversity in our vineyards, farms and land.

This wine is now available. Log in to your RAEN account or sign up below to collect.
