Wild herbs and crushed stone define this ethereal expression from century-old vines. Red berry fruit whispers rather than shouts, while mineral-driven acidity from those Gilroy gravels provides elegant lift. The restraint here captures Grenache at its most graceful. Pure, weightless, utterly compelling.
