2022 Grenache
Edna Valley
We farm nine acres of Grenache at Jespersen Ranch, where the cool coastal influence shapes a graceful, expressive varietal. In 2022, the grapes were hand-sorted and destemmed before fermenting in a mix of concrete and stainless steel, a method that preserves the wine’s bright, lifted red fruit character. It then aged 16 months in concrete, neutral puncheons, and barrels, allowing both the purity of fruit and subtle savory nuances to shine. The result is a vibrant Grenache, layered with black cherry, pomegranate, and white pepper, framed by hints of dried herbs and firm, refined tannins.
