Despite being the same clone, our second varietal Grenache of 2015, this one grown in the Adelaida District, is showing more fruit than the Willow Creek, with black and red cherries, a hint of coffee, and a spicy finish.
Destemmed and fermented whole berry in open-top fermenters with native yeast and pump-overs in place of punch-downs. Transferred to French oak puncheons for aging, about 1/3 new. Open it alongside the 2015 Willow Creek Grenache for a nice comparison of terroir.
