Grenache Lover's Trio

This signature grenache is comprised of a blend of three clones; 362, Tablas and Alban from the steep limestone laden hillsides of Tierra Alta Vineyard. Grapes were picked in November after a long growing season and came in with perfect ripeness and bright acidity. All lots were destemmed and crushed at 40 percent leaving 60% whole berry and 15% of the stems were added back to increase complexity. The grapes were fermented using native yeast to show true terroir. The wine was aged in neutral French oak for 18 months prior to bottling. 

Bright aromas of raspberry, cherry and rhubarb along with white pepper, cinnamon, blood orange and sweet herbs. Juicy flavors of raspberry pomegranate and cherry give way to a round core filled with notes of red vines, orange peel, herbs de Provence and minerality finishing with bright zesty tannins that last.
