The 2003 F A 104 (100% Grenache Blanc) was produced from 50-70-year old vines, and aged four months in French oak. The excellent minerality that is so much a part of this appellation’s red wines comes through in the crushed stone and floral notes. Tasty, medium-bodied, and slightly austere, it represents a Spanish version of a French Chablis. Enjoy this intriguing white over the next several years.
