The Santa Barbara County Grenache was inspired by Fonsalette from Chateau Rayas. The wine represents two very different micro climates. The first vineyard is the Highlands with 3200 feet elevation. The second vineyard is Curtis which is tucked away in Foxen Canyon. The fruit was de-stemmed and each lot was fermented separately and aged for 16 months in neutral French oak. The resulting wine is elegantly structured and focused, and is an excellent introduction to Angela’s style.
