Curran Wines – Grenache Blanc / 2024
Santa Barbara County, California 🇺🇸

Overview
An elegant, dry white that captures Grenache Blanc’s natural freshness and weight, crafted with precision in Santa Barbara County.

Aromas & Flavors
Bright citrus and orchard fruit open the way — lemon zest, pear, and white peach. The palate expands with ripe mango and tropical tones, layered with a faint floral lift and subtle minerality.

Mouthfeel
Dry, medium-bodied, and beautifully balanced. Crisp acidity carries the wine, while the impressive finish of mango and tropical fruit lingers long and clean.

Food Pairings
A versatile match for coastal cuisine: think grilled shrimp, ceviche, sushi, goat cheese salad, or roast chicken with herbs.

Verdict
A standout Grenache Blanc, crisp, vibrant, yet layered with ripe fruit and a polished finish. Proof that this Rhône white thrives in Santa Barbara’s terroir.

Did You Know?
Grenache Blanc is the white-skinned mutation of Grenache Noir, native to Spain’s Catalonia but celebrated in the Rhône Valley blends. It’s rare as a single varietal bottling in California, making this expression even more special.
