Grenache Blanc

2012 Paso Robles Garnacha Blanca

Daou Grenache Blanc, a captivating white wine from the renowned Paso Robles region, embodies the charm and character of the Garnacha Blanca varietal. This exquisite vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile with a lively acidity that invigorates the palate, creating a refreshing experience with each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing enticing notes of pear, white peach, and hints of citrus that dance alongside subtle floral undertones. As you savor this delightful wine, its well-balanced structure comes to the fore, supported by delicate and soft tannins that enhance the overall mouthfeel. This Grenache Blanc is beautifully dry, making it a perfect companion for a variety of dishes, from seafood to lighter poultry fare.

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.
