"The 2022 Grenache (Santa Barbara County) is a fabulous introduction to this range. Bright and aromatic, with striking translucence, the 2022 is all class. Crushed flowers, mint, sweet red cherry fruit, orange peel and white pepper are some of the notes that grace this exquisite, nuanced Grenache."
