The 2018 Grenache Santa Barbara County comes from two great sites, Stolpman and Larner, and was only 40% destemmed and brought up in used barrels. Kirsch, black cherries, peppery herbs, and a touch of violets all emerge from the glass. This fresh, focused, slightly firm Grenache will benefit from another year in bottle.

Crushed rose petal, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and mint soar out of the glass as the 2018 Grenache shows off its considerable allure. Soft and inviting, with tons of varietal character and appeal, the Grenache simply hits all the right notes.
