Groundwork

2009 Santa Barbara County Grenache

Global Wine Co Groundwork is a delightful red Grenache from the esteemed Santa Barbara County, showcasing the region's remarkable terroir. This vintage delivers a medium-bodied experience, with vibrant acidity that adds a refreshing quality to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious notes of ripe strawberries and cherries that meld beautifully with subtle hints of spice and earthiness. Tannins are medium, providing a gentle structure that enhances the wine's overall elegance without overwhelming the palate. This Grenache leans towards the dry side, making it wonderfully versatile for pairing with a variety of dishes, from roasted poultry to grilled vegetables.

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.
