| Grenache Russian River Valley Staley Estate Vineyard | |
| This succulent, rich wine is a product of meticulous work in the vineyard where each year Philip Staley thins half the crop, assuring a low yield of 3 1/2 tons per acre. At the winery, he has tailored a special regimen for the Grenache, including a cold soak of whole clusters and whole berries prior to fermentation. This 100% Grenache has broad, inviting aromas suggesting rose petals and black pepper. Red fruit—cranberry and strawberry—flavors are fresh and forward. Staley's 1997 vintage was the first Grenache to win a gold medal in a major competition in California. Grenache is a versatile wine to be enjoyed in place of a Pinot Noir. |  |
