Beckmen Vineyards 2018 Estate Grenache Santa Ynez Valley
2018 was a fantastic vintage with almost perfect ripening weather and better than average yields of very high-quality fruit. A later start and end to the harvest brought back memories of a more typical Santa Barbara harvest season compared to the last several years. Another outstanding year! The 2018 Santa Ynez Valley Grenache – the first red wine to be released from the 2018 vintage – is truly a pure expression of the grenache varietal. Bold aromas and flavors of cranberry, ripe cherry, strawberry, pomegranate, and baker’s spices are well balanced with a juicy acidity, elegant tannins, and a delicious finish. Tasting fantastic upon release, we suggest enjoying this 100% grenache wine now and during your Thanksgiving celebrations!
Cranberry, ripe cherry, strawberry, pomegranate, baker’s spice, and thyme.
