TASTING NOTES:
“This Grenache Blanc is bursting with aromas of white flowers, Meyer lemon, and juicy white peach. A bright and refreshing white wine, with complex layers of sea mist and minerality.” (AbV 13.5%, 100% Grenache Blanc)

BARRELS
Cold fermentation in stainless steel with sur lie aging for 6 months.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
The phrase “honest-to-goodness” means one swears on “goodness” itself to speak the truth. Of course, “goodness” came as a substitution for “God,” as “honest-to-God” could be considered using the name in vain for some. Another variation apparently is “honest-to-Pete,” likely referring to old St. Peter at the pearly gates instead.

Like “for Pete’s sake.”

Not “Pete’s Sake,” the saint’s personal supply of rice wine.

PAIRS WITH (winery recommended):
Oysters or crudo/ceviche course, arugula & peach salad, scallops or poached fish with Beurre Blanc sauce.

OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option):
An honest soul.
