WINEMAKER NOTES
Indulge in the symphony of flavors with Robert Hall's 2021 Sparkling Grenache Blanc, a testament to craftsmanship and nature's bounty. This sparkling gem delights the senses with nuanced notes of lemon peel, apple blossom, and crushed stone, creating a harmonious blend that captivates from the first sip.
Harvested on 8/31/21, these grapes underwent meticulous treatment, with only the free run utilized for the sparkling base wine. The journey of this elixir began on 1/23/22 when sugar and yeast were added to initiate the second fermentation in the bottle. Patiently aging for 11 months until disgorged on 12/5/22, this Brut-style marvel boasts a mere 5 g/L residual sugar for a clean, crisp finish.
Paso Robles' Grenache Blanc, the heart of this creation, emerges as the hero. Recognizing its unique ability to balance acidity and maturity, our winemakers seamlessly integrated it into the sparkling process. The result is a sparkling wine that transcends expectations, where fine bubbles dance with apricot and papaya flavors, culminating in a sensory journey that leaves an indelible impression.
Venture into a world where wine and culinary artistry converge. The 2021 Sparkling Grenache Blanc is the perfect companion to a variety of dishes. From the briny embrace of oysters on the half shell to the savory delights of charcuterie, and the sweet symphony of a passion fruit pavlova, this sparkling gem elevates every culinary experience. Cheese connoisseurs will delight in pairing it with chevre or gruyere, unlocking new dimensions of flavor.
The vintage of 2021, characterized by a mild start and lower-than-average rainfall, presented challenges that ultimately enriched the character of this sparkling marvel. A delayed bud break and bloom set the stage for a growing season that defied expectations. Despite heat waves and temperatures exceeding 110°F, the grapes harvested on August 17th reflected exceptional quality and concentration. In the warmth of Paso Robles, Robert Hall found a canvas for crafting a sparkling Grenache Blanc that embodies the essence of an extraordinary vintage.
Embark on a journey of taste and refinement with Robert Hall's 2021 Sparkling Grenache Blanc—a sparkling masterpiece that transcends time and tantalizes the palate.
Alcohol: 11.5%
