2000 Grenache

2000 Grenache Wine Details
Price: $26.00 per bottle

Description: Traditionally grown in the Southern Rhône of France, Grenache is partly responsible for the wines of Chateauneuf-du-pape and is a mainstay in the Rioja region of Spain. Our Sunstone Vineyards and Winery 2000 Grenache is a blend of 83% Grenache from the Cucamonga Vineyard in southern California and 17% Syrah from the Sunstone Winery Estate. Deep crimson yields to a brick red rim in the glass. On the nose this Côte-du-Rhône style blend weaves marzipan and eucalyptus with aromas of dried Bing cherries, licorice, and a slight hint of brown sugar. Cherries and cranberry develop with medium body in the mouth yielding to clove and a hint of vanilla and black pepper.
