2018 Gorgeous Grenache

$42.00

Your ginger snaps
with blueberry bay leaf jam
and black salt licorice

Our Grenache comes from Garnier Vineyard just east of Mosier, Oregon on the banks of the Columbia River in the Columbia Gorge. Wrought by the work of this regions dramatic geologic history, the soil here is a shallow sandy loam with basalt protrusions and produces lively, energetic wines with distinction and personality.

TASTING NOTES:
The 2018 Gorgeous Grenache is a blue note wine with black and orange and green. The berries are blue with huckleberry and violets too. Black salt licorice, elderberry, and walnut skin. Dark cocoa hits blood orange and orange pekoe tea with a nod to bay leaf, spring willow bark and lime lighted mojito. Lots going on here in a fleshy savory saline way. It’s textural and rich with both a density and bounce. An olive pit edge with a finish of sassafras in your gingersnaps.
