Grenache
Alonso Vineyard, Aqua Dulce, California
15%
This is an early picking of Grenache grapes from Alonso Vineyard on October 4, 2020. The grapes were stomped by foot prior to a fourteen hour maceration on the skins, then pressed to a stainless tank with the lees left inside. The result is a pink, peppercorn-colored and dark rosato style wine with notes of prickly pear, anise and salty breeze.
