NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Elizabeth Spencer Grenache (Special Cuvée) is a full-bodied red wine with aromas of dark cherry and raspberry, complemented by notes of white pepper, dried herbs, and anise.On the palate, the wine is soft and velvety with a core of ripe red and black fruit flavors, framed by sweet oak, and a hint of mocha. The finish is long and lingering, with an additional hint of baking spices. A truly unique and delicious wine.

ORIGINS
Winery: Elizabeth Spencer
Region: North Coast California
The North Coast of California boasts some of the most renowned vineyards and wineries in the world. Located in the northern part of the state, the North Coast is home to the Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and Mendocino County, all of which are recognised for their exceptional wines.
The North Coast of California has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The region was first planted with vines by Spanish missionaries, who planted Mission grapes in the area. In the late 1800s, Italian immigrants began to settle in the region, bringing with them their own grape varieties and winemaking techniques. By the early 1900s, the North Coast had become a major wine-producing region, with many of the wineries still in operation today.CUSTOMER RATING
