Community Tasting Note

  September 18, 2011 - 100% Grenache Blanc grown biodynamically in Salinas Valley. Bright medium gold core with a watery rim and moderate legs. The nose is fully developed with medium + intensity of baked golden apples, honey, stewed apricots, dried pineapple, lees and minerals. The palate is dry, medium acidity, medium + alcohol (14.5% abv), full bodied, medium flavor intensity of grilled pineapple, baked peaches, honey, ginger, and toffee notes with medium + length on the finish. A good quality white which shows concentration, complexity and length. I would say this is a varietally correct wine that has reached its prime. Drink now or the next 1-2 years. Bought it at a closeout price of $12 retail at the tasting room in Santa Cruz.
