2011 Two Shepherds Saarloos Vineyard Santa Ynez Valley Grenache Blanc ($24, 13.8%):
This new label takes its Grenache Blanc very seriously, with indigenous yeast fermentation and aging on lees in old oak barrels on some well-chosen fruit from Los Olivos. There's a terrific mineral edge to the pistachio and bergamot aromas, with brightness to match the ripe, pear-like fruit. A full texture that shows what makes the grape so appealing.
