2015 Saint K Wines Grenache Blanc
Tasting Note:June 28, 2016
Second of the two wines by Saint K Wines, two completely different styles. This one has some neutral barrel aging in it. Dark golden yellow. Very tight on the nose with some light honey and cooked apples. An undertone almost of a sour beer. Moderate acidity (6.5/10) with moderate plus body. Slightly earthy and savory on the palate. Some honeycomb like texture, and seems extracted. More balanced and not as sharp as the 2014. Slightly sour in the finish, not off-putting just different. Long and lingering finish.
Made of 100% Grenache Blanc from the Luna Matta Vineyard in Paso Robles. Fermented in a single stainless tank and aged in neutral barrels. Only 80 cases produced.
