2017 Grenache

This is the third vintage of Grenache we’ve produced from grapes grown at Spanish Springs Vineyard. We hate to exaggerate, but we believe this is the best vintage yet. It’s a classic example of a Rhône varietal grown in a cool climate, opening with vibrant aromas of dark plum, blueberry waffles, and forest floor. On its expressive palate, hints of wild blackberries, blueberries and spice blend seamlessly throughout the wine’s succulent textures and integrated tannins. One of the most charming qualities of this wine is its attractive acidity, typical of Spanish Springs Vineyard, whose proximity to the ocean produces a long hang time and an unparalleled balance of sugar and acid in the grapes. This Grenache is a prime candidate to pair with slow-cooked meats, or even Thanksgiving Turkey.
