BD17 OFFER Stellareese "Lucid Poet" Grenache

$119.50

Made in the Southern Rhone tradition of 100% whole cluster and fermented for 22 days. Our Grenache is everything we hoped it would be; a great representation of rhone style technique and exquisite California mountain fruit.

2017 Tasting Notes:

Aromatics of wild strawberry, fig and salted caramel. The palate is savory and mouthwatering with notes of strawberry candy, lavender, and chaparral. Its long finish is nuanced with rhubarb and bourbon soaked cherries.
