Aromas of honeysuckle, nuts, orchard fruit, lemon confit and fresh herbs, with a slight saline edge. The palate is mid-weighted and textural, with bright acidity and a strong core of fruit. It will only get better with time in the bottle. Made from 85% grenache blanc, 12% picpoul and 3% roussanne. Drink or hold.

Varietal

Grenache Blanc

Grenache Blanc is a white grape varietal primarily grown in Southern France and Spain. Known for its full-bodied wines, Grenache Blanc offers flavors of green apple, pear, and citrus, often accompanied by herbaceous and floral notes. It thrives in warm, dry climates and is typically blended with other varietals like Roussanne and Marsanne to add freshness and acidity. The wines can range from crisp and zesty to rich and oily, depending on the winemaking style. Grenache Blanc's versatility allows it to pair well with a variety of dishes, including grilled fish, poultry, and Mediterranean cuisine. Despite its lower profile compared to its red counterpart, Grenache Blanc is valued for its ability to produce complex and well-balanced wines.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

A lesser-spotted wine from one of California’s most celebrated estates, this Wine Society exclusive is an effortlessly charming, unforced but succulent and complex dry white aged in a mixture of oak, acacia, concrete and clay and offering poached pear and fresh white peach, subtle white flowers and coursing gentle acidity.

With 12% Picpoul and 3% Roussanne, the 2024 Grenache Blanc spends eight months in five-year-old barrels, able to retain crisp acidity on the lengthy, textured palate, the grapes sourced from such great local sites as Adelaida, Fossil Creek, and Halter Ranch. Apricot shines bright amidst a floral jasmine character that's impressively inviting, balanced, and enduringly fresh. Drink now through 2030.

A beautiful nose of green orchard fruits, citrus blossoms and a flinty accent introduces the 2024 Grenache Blanc, which includes 12% Picpoul and 3% Roussanne. The palate is buoyant, focused and padded with a touch more textural breadth and depth than I've observed in recent vintages. It concludes with the snappy, tangy energy and mineral undercurrent that perennially characterizes this bottling.

The 2024 Grenache Blanc Paso Robles also includes dollops of Picpoul and Roussanne. A flicker of gunsmoke reduction leads the charge, opening into a tropical-inflected array of rich, oily fruit. Bright and phenolic, the 2024 is a nicely textured white with a palpable sense of mineral grip. Golden mango, pear, toasted hazelnut, orange oil and chalk build with air.

Pear peel, tart orange and jicama aromas converge with a light waft of smoke on the noe of this bottling, which comes from three vineyards and includes 12% Picpoul and 3% Roussanne. The palate is broadly crafted with baked apple and smoked chicken flavors that are cut by an iron-like minerality.

Wine Spectator

Supple in feel, with grilled lemon and spiced, poached pear flanked by toasted almond and fennel frond notes. Finishes clean. Drink now. 4,000 cases made.

Winery Notes

Attractive, golden color. Aromas of white flowers, peach, ripe melon, pineapple, key lime and wet stone. A bright and clean entry with medium body. Complex mouthfeel with minerality and fresh natural acidity lead to a mouthwatering finish.
