2021 Florez Wines Grenache Blanc White Rhino Windmill Vineyard, Dunnigan Hills, Callifornia, USA
$33.99
This wine was made with grapes from a CCOF organic vineyard located on the east side of the Northern California Coast Range. This vineyard features well draining pinkish gravelly alluvial soils, rolling hills of olives and fruit trees, proof that this terroir is well suited to Rhone varieties. Cared for by the calm and focused Sergio Villanueva this CCOF organic vineyard was first consulted for by progressive Viticulturalist Steve Mathiasson. Unfortunately the Grenache Blanc vines are being pulled out this year due to disease pressure, so this will be the last cuvee of Grenache Blanc from this vineyard. In the cellar 2/3 of the fruit was direct pressed and 1/3 was foot treaded. After a primary fermentation in stainless, the wine was racked to barrel, where it was left sur lie for 6 months before being racked and bottled. This wine received no additions including no added sulfites
