ALL HAIL LLAMA QUEEN

California celebrates its unique status as being the single most diverse producer of world-class wines anywhere in the world. Every grape variety thrives in the warm California climate, cooled by the mists of the Pacific Ocean. Llama Queen Rosé is a fresh, lively expression of this viticultural bounty, with a taste of California sunshine offered in every sip.

In times past, rosés often had the reputation of all being flat, boring, mass-produced wines lacking in regional character, and strictly the domain of summer barbecues. Today’s wine drinker knows that this is an outdated stereotype, and there is an incredible amount of attention being paid to the production of rosé wines in California. Llama Queen is true to its place of origin, carefully crafted, and proud to show the potential of California rosé.
