Acclaim
“A step up over last year’s rendition, the 2019 Grenache, Sauvignon, Marsanne offers a juicy peach, tangerine, and citrus-laced bouquet that carries to a medium to light-bodied, nicely balanced, refreshing style on the palate. This beauty sells for a song, is an easy drinking as they come, and should keep nicely for a year or two.”  
— Jeb Dunnuck, Oct 2020

Wine Production

The grapes are harvested in the early morning, during the coolest hours of the day. The Sauvignon Blanc slightly underipe to favour bright aromatics, followed by the Grenache Blanc with notes of white flowers and finally the Marsanne for spice and orange blossom. Low temperature fermentations (54° to 57°F) and a light oak aging for 6 months for the Marsanne.
