Grenache
Moon Mountain VineyardWine Notes
For the dedicated Rhôné wine lover, the discovery of a compelling California Grenache is an unexpected delight. To find one that so faithfully displays the finesse of its Old World counterparts is rarer still. These head-trained vines produce a layered flavor profile anchored by brisk acidity and bright, luscious fruit. In classic Rhôné tradition, we age the wine in neutral oak to frame Grenache’s subtle nuances.
