The return of two-time Gold medal winning Gilded Letter to Firstleaf
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Gilded Letter
Grenache
We couldn’t be more excited to bring the newest release from this golden child to the club. Judges and members alike loved the Gilded Letter Zinfandel, and now they are back with a “New World” style Grenache from the “Old World.” This wine shows off the power and finesse of a great Grenache. It’s fresh and opulent with ripe fruit, minerals, and hints of earth, herbs, and black olives. Our experts say that this complex wine is perfect for the passionate wine lover, in particular, those that like pairing it with food. The secondary notes make pairing a snap.

WINE REGION:
France
While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
