2023 Grenache Blanc
Grown on our Estate - planted in 1974 - own rooted - farmed to organic principles. Pick based on acidity and flavors. We wanted to keep this wine fresh, zippy, and easy to enjoy. Barrel fermented to provide slight depth on the palate. One of our favorite vintages of late.

There appears to be some skin-contact fermentation that benefited this rather yellow-hued wine. Aromas of apple, chamomile and apricot blossom lead from the nose into a textural palate of cantaloupe flesh and rind flavors. — Matt Kettmann
Coming from the Santa Ynez Valley, this 2023 Grenache Blanc was stored in all neutral wood before bottling. Kiwi and rich melon flavors combine with a smooth mouthfeel and good underlying tension on the palate. Drink 2024-2030 92 points — Owen Bargreen
