WINE DESCRIPTION
Margerum Grenache is made from destemmed fruit that is fermented with gentle extraction to allow gradual extraction of color and tannin from the skins. Following fermentation, the wine is softly pressed before maturing in neutral French oak puncheons to round out the texture and harmonise the flavors without imparting oak spice.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Margerum Grenache is a bright pale to medium ruby hue.The nose bursts with aromas of ripe raspberry, red currant and violets. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a core of red berry flavors that are enveloped by chalky tannins. The finish is relatively long with a broad and mouth filling texture.

ORIGINS
Winery: Margerum
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
