Le Cigare Blanc Réserve

2010 Arroyo Seco Roussanne, Grenache Blanc

Global Wine Co. Le Cigare Blanc Réserve is an enchanting white wine hailing from the picturesque Arroyo Seco region. This 2010 vintage beautifully combines the floral notes and rich mouthfeel of Roussanne with the bright, crisp characteristics of Grenache Blanc. The wine exhibits a full body that conveys a sense of opulence, complemented by a high acidity that adds vibrancy and freshness, making it incredibly food-friendly. On the palate, it reveals a prominent intensity of stone fruits, with nuances of pear and white peach, while hints of spice and herbaceousness weave through. The wine is delightfully dry, allowing its complex flavor profile to shine through without being weighed down. This standout white is a must-try for those seeking an extraordinary wine experience.

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.
