Gold Star Grenache Blanc 2017
Santa Barbara County
Grenache Blanc is usually found giving richness to southern Rhône blends, but here it shines solo. Fruity, vibrant and gently spiced; it's everything you'd expect from a top winery on the Golden State's sunny coast - we just can't tell you which one!

When a top estate in Santa Barbara County needed to make space in their cellar they called us. The result was an exclusive, friends-only deal (in exchange for keeping their name to ourselves, you get an amazing price). The star here is the Grenache Blanc. It's a key grape in southern France, where it brings body and richness to blends in prized regions like Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Côtes du Rhône. But here – thanks to the Golden State's coastal vineyards – it shines in solo glory. Look forward to expressive stonefruit flavours, with hints of white pepper and gentle spice. With its luscious flavours and long finish, this thrilling Grenache Blanc is incredibly food-friendly. Why not try it with creamy risottos, exotic salads, or chicken?
