Beckman Grenache 2022

Dat­ing back to our very first vin­tage of the release in 1995, the SYV Grenache has always demon­strat­ed beau­ti­ful, pure, ripe Grenache fruit. The fruit for this wine is grown on both Purisi­ma Moun­tain Vine­yard and Thomas and Judith Beck­men Estate Vine­yard, from some of our old­est vines rang­ing in age from 25 – 28 years old. The wine incor­po­rates com­plete­ly destemmed fruit which under­goes a long, slow fer­men­ta­tion of 12 – 15 days. Aged for 10 months in neu­tral French and Amer­i­can oak bar­rels, the SYV Grenache is approach­able upon release and express­es lay­ers of pure Grenache fruit with fla­vors rang­ing from rasp­ber­ry to cher­ry to pome­gran­ate with a touch of white pepper.
