The Gap

2012 Paso Robles Grenache Blanc, Picpoul Blanc, Roussanne

Terry Hoage Vineyards The Gap is a delightful white wine that beautifully showcases the harmonious blend of Grenache Blanc, Picpoul Blanc, and Roussanne. This stunning 2012 vintage from the renowned Paso Robles region presents a bright and refreshing character, making it a perfect choice for sunny days and lively gatherings. With its well-balanced profile, the wine boasts a medium body that leads to a luscious mouthfeel. The acidity is on the bright side, providing a crisp and invigorating lift that enhances its fruit intensity, displaying vibrant notes of green apple, pear, and citrus zest. Subtle floral aromas layer the experience, while a touch of minerality adds depth and complexity. The Gap is dry, allowing the wine's flavors to shine through in a most enjoyable and food-friendly fashion, making it an excellent partner for seafood dishes and light salads.

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.
