Grown in pure sand, the 2002 Grenache Christine’s Vineyard (from a vineyard with vines averaging 35 years) is a 100% Grenache cuvee aged in neutral French oak prior to being bottled unfiltered. Its gorgeous, Pinot Noir-like perfume of sweet cherry liqueur intermixed with strawberries, minerals, pepper, and earth is followed by a wine of undeniable elegance, richness, and intensity. Drink this stunning Grenache now and over the next 4-6 years. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
