Grenache, or Garnacha, is one of the most widely planted red wine grape varieties in the world.  It's a late ripener so it prefers hot and dry conditions like those found in the Sierra Foothills in Amador County, California.

The brilliantly clear, reflective and super-pale ruby color suggests that it’s a light body wine. At 14.2% ABV it is far from that. Spicy strawberry jam and tart cherry notes align with subdued tannins and racy acidity. Aged two years in neutral oak barrels preserves the luscious fruit expression of Amador County Grenache.

Lagrein is an ancient grape variety that finds its home in the sunny vineyards of Trentino-Alto Adige in northeastern Italy. It first appeared in wine documentation around the beginning of the 13th century, was praised in 1370 by Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV, and was on the brink of extinction by the 1970s.

This exciting varietal is a rarity. There are only about 1000 acres planted to Lagrein in the world. The grapes for this wine were sourced from a small vineyard near Pleasant Valley in El Dorado, California.

It was barrel aged for two years and bottle aged for two years before being released.

This beauty has a long-ageing potential. It demands to be noticed.
