2016 Clos de Gilroy Grenache

When you don’t want to drink your good stuff during the week and you don’t want to spend an arm and a leg in the process, here is a great value everyday red that will have you dancing till the cows come home. From the impressive lineup of wines from Bonny Doon, winemaker Randall Graham has crafted fruit from Monterey County to make this impressive Grenache (with a touch of Mourvedre and Syrah). Inviting flavors of red currant, plum, cranberry and raspberry fruit mix well with its smoke peppered meatiness, ripe pomergranate, rose petal, tea leaf, olive and cherry liqueur notes. Though light in alcohol at 13.1%, there’s still plenty of backbone and muscularity to please your taste buds. Very food friendly, enjoy with a meal or with your favorite selection of hearty cheeses.
