Boushey Vineyard Grenache Blanc 2018
Newish vintage, 600 cases produced. 94/6 blend of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne from three vineyards: Boushey (81% GB), Weather Eye (13% GB), Olsen (6% R). Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Floral, vanilla and mild aldehydic barnyard aromas. Guava, lactic flavors, tropical fruit finish (banana then coconut? But this ain’t no Piña colada). Lingering cherry and heavy (skin and seed) tannic aftertaste . This is either serious experimental winemaking, or ultra craft-focused ‘blanc de noir’, or is this just their iteration of a pale “orange” wine? Massive tannins for a “white” wine. Not a wine for the faint of heart. Dry, just enough acidity, fruity but still pondering this one... The trop fruit flavors backed off, with cherry and other red fruit and Grenache character flavors emerging after 30-60 minutes. Tannins also softened somewhat, with patience — 5 years ago

Nigori Creme de Sake
A piña colada in sake form - very fun and a big time crowd pleaser! Creamy, smooth, and unfiltered. Medium bodied texture that reminds me of pulpy orange juice. Roasted coconut, pineapple, some grapefruit and banana. — 3 years ago

Though Piña Cellars is renowned for its powerful reds, this small-production Chardonnay from the Low Vineyard proves they know their way around white wines, too. Grown next to the famed Muir-Hanna Vineyard, the same fruit once used in Montelena’s legendary 1976 Paris Tasting Chardonnay, this wine is something truly special.
Quite different from the classic California butter-bomb, this bottling leans into elegance and precision. The nose opens with layers of honeysuckle, orchard fruits, brioche, and subtle spice. On the palate, white peach, apricot, and pear dance with delicate hints of hazelnut, all wrapped in a creamy, full-bodied texture.
Mouthfeel is plush and satiny, yet lifted by a refreshing acidity that keeps it vibrant through a long, graceful finish.
Still youthful, but showing beautifully now, this Chardonnay has the structure to age and evolve for years. A true showstopper, and a rare gem from a producer that usually flies under the Chardonnay radar. ✨🍐🥂 — 18 hours ago
