Grenache
Enfield Wine Co.
U.S.A.
> California
From two vineyards planted on opposite sides of the Sacramento River delta, this is the embodiment of what makes Grenache on sand so special. It is pale, juicy, spicy, and delicious with surprising mid palate and effervescent tannins on the finish. Del Barba brings deep fruit to compliment Abba’s ethereal prettiness. Like your favourite Cru Beaujolais, it is crushable with just the right amount of seriousness. Rose petal, bergamot tea, dragon fruit, curry leaf, chestnut umami, gorgeously aromatic with a plush, juicy mid palate and a vibrant finish.

IN THE VINEYARD
From 2 vineyards planted in deep sandy soil on opposite sides of the Sacramento River Delta.
Del Barba Vineyard, Lodi -
John sources old vine Grenache from the Del Barba family, Italian immigrants from the 1880s, who have nurtured their vineyard through six generations, including challenges like Prohibition and the pressures of the Bay Area's housing demand.
Remarkably, the Grenache at Del Barba is grafted onto time-tested zinfandel roots from the late 1800s
The vineyard boasts a unique soil composition: Delhi blow sand, a kind of decomposed granite, deposited over centuries by wind and water.
Despite the Delta region's inherent heat, Del Barba's vines thrive. Their roots delve over 40 feet deep, accessing underground water reserves, while daily afternoon breezes offer a refreshing cooldown
Abba Vineyard, Contra Costa -
Nestled in the historically rich Lodi region, Abba Vineyard is celebrated for producing Grenache that captures the elegance and finesse often likened to Pinot Noir.
The vineyard, under the care of the Abba family for generations, thrives in Lodi's consistent Mediterranean climate. With predictable sun-soaked days followed by refreshingly cool nights, the grapes mature beautifully.
This distinctive climate, especially when combined with early harvesting, results in Grenache wines that boast the floral delicacy found in cooler-climate Pinot Noirs, while also showcasing their inherent bright fruit and spicy undertones.
