Description
White Wine by Skinner from Sierra Foothills, California. The aromatics on the 2018 Grenache Blanc are seemingly boundless, as the nose runs the spectrum of nuances. The first impression is crushed rock and white flowers, giving way to underpinnings of honeysuckle, stone fruit and sandalwood. This wine’s clean, platinum hue and lithe aromatics only begin to tell the story of its deep, complex palate presence. Opening with zippy, perfumed summer fruit-a continuation of the stone fruit suggested in the bouquet-the midpalate is pleasingly covered with sensual weight and phenolic tension, a tight balance of fruit and earth. The finish is long and elevated, leaving a lingering impression of a Grenache Blanc that is poised, vivacious and lightheartedly seductive.
