Soft floral nose. Salty and complex on the palate. Super long savory finish.

Randall Grahm's tribute to white Bordeaux, Gravitas is a blend of 54% Semillon, 43.5% Sauvignon Blanc and 2.5% Orange Muscat grapes from five Central Coast vineyards. The wine has a pretty golden tint and a savory nose featuring tangerine, Meyer lemon, a touch of lanolin and a bit of a floral note. The palate shows fabulous salinity - a Grahm hallmark - with citrus and an extremely refreshing acidity.

Good egg! Lovely accompaniment to Tikka Masala. Savage rations, of course, but the wine lifts the meal to a nearly civilised point. @BonnyDoon Vineyard

Orange rind on the nose, Sémillon gives it body, Sauv Blanc for acidity. My only gripe with this is that it kind of falls apart on the finish... Think it would probably be even better with food.

Clean minerality. Someone said salty and I think that's right. Nice with food--cleanses the palate well.

Excellent floral notes; delicious on the palate. Good concentration and intensity.

Very nice. Not overly sweet, well balanced. A white both my wife and I enjoy.
