Grenache

A pretty clear color with shining ruby reflections. The nose is light, with notes of small tart red fruits, violets and pink berries. 30% Syrah and 70% Grenache >>>

This 'Soif d'Ailleurs' is made from a manually harvested field blend of grapes (the three Grenaches, Clairette, Counoise, Cinsault, Muscat de Hambourg, Malbec) that are then pressed in entire bunches. >>>

50 % young black Grenache and 50 % Syrah. After having studied with winegrowers such as Thierry Puzelat or Jean François Nicq des Foulards Rouges, Jean Sébastien Gioan created the Domaine Potron Minet near Trouillas, in the Pyrénées Orientales. >>>

As with many younger growers MDC does not own vineyards, but Alex and Marty do have close relationships with all the growers they work with and in some cases they do the work themselves. Case in point: the Herron vineyard in the Sonoma Mountain AVA >>>

There is something about dark, inky Mourvèdre, and the salty sea air passing through the vines every night that typifies classic Bandol. With substantial Mourvèdre at its core, this blend of is complete, and ready to serve cooled down a touch.

Pure Grenache vinified about as naturally as you can imagine, from Rhone superstar Domaine Gramenon. Fresh, savory, delicious. Grip 'n' sip.
