Tasting notes
The 2017 The Maven is made from 100% Grenache aged 19 months in 40% new French oak. Fruit comes from the G2, Fulldraw and Four Hearts vineyards. Medium ruby-purple, it has pretty aromas of crushed strawberries, raspberries and blueberries with notes of violet and blood orange peel. The palate is light to medium-bodied with bright, juicy, lifted and spicy fruits in a silky frame and with a long finish. 282 cases produced.

All Grenache brought up in 35% new French oak, the 2017 The Maven reveals an incredibly pretty, perfumed bouquet of black raspberry and wild strawberry fruit as well as notes of spring flowers, blood orange, and spice. This carries to a full-bodied, incredibly sexy Grenache offering elegance paired with ample sweet fruit, ripe (yet present) tannins, flawless balance, and a great finish.
