(Santa Clara County) Grenache 2018

The bottle was opened about three hours prior to dinner, splash decanted and then returned to the bottle. Pours a bright ruby color. On the nose, red cherry and strawberry fruits; comes across a bit alpine? Minerals and other light herbs somewhat nod the mountains...which I guess makes some sense considering the location of Besson Vineyard (the source of the fruit, just outside of the Santa Cruz AVA). This is a Grenache endowed with undeniable structure. The acid is obvious immediately however, it takes a few hours for the tannin monster to show up. This would benefit from a handful of years on the cellar. The Besson Vineyard was planted in 1910. The folks at Birichino Winery were willing to share 1.5 tons of their fruit. 3.5 barrels produced. — 5 years ago

Besson Vineyard Vieilles Vignes Grenache

This is fun! Dried Grenache from California makes a lighter, more food friendly wine than it’s dried grape counterparts. Nice acidity, medium concentration, beautiful petal flavors. — 7 years ago

Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2014

Night 2 notes: Just a killer Chablis. The purity and crystalline nose has citrus drizzled barely ripe peach, unbelievably sweet limestone/chalky minerality, a wee bit of damp earth. Intensely flavored yet almost weightless. Pure, very nicely integrate acidity. Great balance and nice persistence. — 7 years ago
