We put our hand out and accept nature's gift. Our first Grenache Blanc in a long while, it was well worth the wait. This wine is a ray of sunlight beaming through a cozy sunroom with starfruit on the nose is a fun new wine on the J Dusi lineup. Opens with ripe honeydew melon and glides into soft baked apple on the mid-palate. Followed by a delicate minerality and subtle pineapple finish.
Grenache Blanc is one of the newest Dusi family plantings, grown at our Fossil Creek Vineyard in the heart of the Templeton Gap. The unique climate of the Templeton Gap is known for its diurnal swings, temperatures can shift as much a 50 degrees from day to night during the ripening period.
