Description:
This is Tensley Wines' third vintage of the Camp 4 Vineyard Blanc, the only wine Jennifer and Joey Tensley make as a team. As in past vintages, the two grape varieties come from continuous rows within the vineyard, but unlike years past, this vintage includes a slightly higher percentage of Roussanne (40% as opposed to 35%). The result is a bit more weight in the mouth and a touch more tropical fruit on the palate. The Grenache Blanc and Roussanne were pressed together as whole clusters into neutral oak barrels. All fermentation took place in barrel, and malolactic fermentation was stopped halfway through to retain acidity and freshness. Once again these varietals have proven that they are a match made in heaven. The Grenache Blanc shines with fresh minerals, pebbles, and crisp green apple while the Roussanne offers up a luscious mouthfeel brimming with guava, mango, nectarines and apricots. Drink this wine now or age it over the next three to five years.
