Swinney Grenache 2021 santa-barbara-county A big step up in

A big step up in intensity and weight and richness with flavours of confit apple and pear with little hints of caramelization with delicate hints of hazelnut all the while underpinned with a very fine vein of acidity and a hint of salinity on the very long finish

stripping are done by hand with meticulous care

flat sections and Kimmerigean limestone marls not so far down the slope and going all the way to the bottom

Swinney Grenache 2021 santa-barbara-county A big step up inDeep lively crimson. Bright, brambly and perfumed with musk sticks, Mr Lincoln rose, red liquorice and violets. The palate is grapey, fresh and pithy with pomegranate, red cherry and rusty nails. Full flavoured yet light on its feet, the intense fruit is complimented by suede like tannins that frame the fruit beautifully.
