2021 Flora Marie Grenache

Our first Single-Vineyard Grenache from Flora Marie Vineyard, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Aromas of bramble fruit on the nose, with bright and juicy notes of delicate cherry and rose petal finish with a nice, light finish with a hint of spice. It’s a very easy wine to drink!

Winemaker Notes:

Boasting loads of juicy red fruits and a lively acidity the Flora Marie Grenache is a very easy wine to drink.  The fruit comes into the winery in beautiful condition and expresses itself wonderfully in the bottle.  

 

The Vineyard:

The Flora Marie Vineyard has been the source for our wonderful Turbine Rosé for years now, so we decided it was time to make a 100% red Grenache from Flora Marie as well. Located off Eastside Road, the vineyard sits in both the Sonoma Coast and Russian River Valley appellations, offering warmer days and cool nights. Grenache from this area is rare, but delicious.

 

 

 

Light to medium in body, this wine boasts incredibly bright and juicy red raspberries and cherry fruit flavors, with a crisp acidic finish with a hint of spice.  Serve this with pizza, pasta and poultry dishes for delightful pairings. It’s aslo great with roast veggies.

People often associate Grenache with being one of the key components of the famous GSM blends. GSM blends tend to be full bodied red wines, so if this is your first time drinking Grenache on its own, you may be surprised at how light and bright this wonderfully complex wine tastes. Enjoy!
