Clos De Gilroy

2013 Monterey County Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre

The Global Wine Co. Clos De Gilroy is a delightful red wine from the picturesque Monterey County, crafted from a harmonious blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. This 2013 vintage showcases a medium to full-bodied profile that is enhanced by its vibrant acidity, offering a refreshing lift on the palate. With its pronounced fruit intensity, expect to experience layers of juicy red cherries and ripe plums, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthiness. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that supports the wine's complexity. This wine is dry, making it an excellent choice for various food pairings, from grilled meats to hearty pasta dishes. Enjoy a glass and let it transport you to the sun-drenched vineyards of its origin.

Region:

Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
