The Name:
Ama’ translates as ‘loves’ in Italian. We coined the term Amarose to reference our family heritage and our love of rosé while also alluding to the natural floral elements that our wine embraces.
When Tim Covello left his stressful insurance job to pursue his dream of starting a wine company, he partnered with his daughter, Ally, to create an artisan rosé that celebrated their passion for good wine.
Our Approach:
We started Amarose to create an approachable but sophisticated rosé that gets rave reviews from both sommeliers and everyday wine drinkers. We believe that wine is ultimately about the joy of connection, and we hope that Amarose can bring people together, whether for everyday occasions or big milestones, and foster a broader, inclusive community of wine lovers.

Caymus has a signature style that is dark in color, with rich fruit and ripe, velvety tannins – as approachable in youth as in maturity. We farm Cabernet grapes in eight of Napa’s 16 sub-appellations, with diversification enabling us to make the best possible wine in a given year. This Cabernet offers layered, lush aromas and flavors, including cocoa, cassis and ripe dark berries.
Golden color. Very aromatic. White flowers, fresh fruit, lime, citrus aromas as well as a bergamot. Pleasant mouthfeel, supple, crisp, fruity flavors. There is a touch of acidity, revealing a deliciously integrated minerality.
Machine harvested at full maturity (around Sept. 25th - lasts 12-18 days); pneumatic press; fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for 8-10 days; M.L (2 months after the harvest); aging on the lees until May (3 month extra compared to the Petit Chablis); racking; fining if necessary; cold stabilization; filtration right before bottling in July.
Ideal as an aperitif, the wine is an excellent companion to seafood, smoked salmon for example.
