Brandon Farrell's Notes
Dieter meticulously handcrafted this wine, and this is why I called it "Gremitage"... to pay respect to this Grand Cru-worthy wine & site. Please ask about the meaning of Gremitage!
To elevate its character, this wine incorporates 45% whole clusters into the mix, adding remarkable texture, weight, and our signature stemmy spice. The result is a wine that will ignite your palate and leave you craving more. For those who appreciate the elegance and complexity of the Northern Rhone region, our Santa Maria Valley Syrah is a must-try. With its captivating blend of flavors and exquisite balance, it embodies the spirit of its renowned French counterparts.
