Storm

2012 Santa Ynez Valley Chenin Blanc

Global Wine Co Storm is a captivating white wine crafted from the Chenin Blanc varietal, hailing from the enchanting Santa Ynez Valley. This 2012 vintage expresses a delightful balance that showcases its full-bodied nature, making it both rich and satisfying to the palate. The wine's high acidity brings a refreshing brightness, perfectly complementing its prominent fruit intensity characterized by vibrant notes of stone fruit and citrus. As you sip, the subtly dry finish reveals soft, well-integrated tannins, enhancing the overall experience without overshadowing the fruit. This wine is an exceptional choice for those seeking a versatile companion for a variety of dishes or simply to enjoy on its own.

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.
