These Grenache grapes are sourced from both Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys. A small portion of these grapes were grown right here at Olivet Lane, hailing from our experimental block of new red varietals. To round out a varietal specific wine, we were introduced to another old vine Grenache vineyard in the hills of eastern Dry Creek Valley. The owners of the Anax Vineyard grow a full assortment of the traditional Rhone varieties. The block of Grenache runs southeast to northwest, with a soil horizon running through the middle point of the vineyard, more clay to the north, and more gravel to the south. Because of that, different pieces of the block bring with them different flavor profiles, rich deep fruit from the northern edge of the block, and more spice and structure from the southern portion. When brought together, they form for a special mélange of flavor profiles, unique to the site.
