The Mill's House Rosé

Bottoms Up
By Anna Faller | Oct. 5, 2024

For the perfect rosy-hued drink to go along with the early days of fall, the 2023 House Rosé from The Mill in Glen Arbor is a no-brainer. Crafted in partnership with Boathouse Vineyards in Lake Leelanau, this wine is made with 100-percent estate-grown (and organic) Cabernet Franc grapes fermented and aged in stainless steel. The result is a gorgeously-concentrated pour, rife with notes of ripe red fruit, green peppercorn, and just a touch of fine tannic structure. Enjoy a sip—near room temperature, staff suggests—and pair it with something autumnal, like the salt-baked beets with coffee oil and mustard on The Mill’s Supper menu. Check out The Mill and their curated wine selection at 5440 W. Harbor Hwy in Glen Arbor. Psst—you can also find the House Rosé at The Outpost in downtown Traverse City! themillglenarbor.com
