Just look at these beautiful bottles filled with unfiltered and wild natured Broc Cellars juice hitting our shelves today! Gibson Ranch Grenache Gris Rosé - Gibson Ranch grows 110 year-old vines Grenache vines and is located in the McDowell Valley, inland of the town of Mendocino. They farm naturally using practices that are in line with our winemaking philosophy. They do not use any synthetic herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers. As with many old vine vineyards, it looks like some of the vines have mutated. In this case, from Grenache Noir to Grenache Gris. Jumping genes! Soils consist of sand and sandy loam. Lone Pine Lagrein - Since we started working with Lone Pine Vineyard’s Lagrein in 2016, it has been made differently each year. The individual vintages have explored varied expressions from the grape and vineyard. The earlier years were darker with longer skin contact. Last year we direct pressed – and it looked and tasted like an orange wine. We love every vintage thus far, but feel this year has brought out the best of Lone Pine’s Lagrein. Half of the grapes were foot stomped and the other half left whole cluster. All grapes went into the press together. We aged the wine for 10 months in stainless. 2019 is more of a rosato – it tastes like freshly picked summer strawberries from the garden. The numerous bottles of Nusserhoff’s Alto Adige Lagrein Rosé that we have enjoyed over the years inspire this wine. Enjoy this wine year round! Got Grapes Valdiguié - This year’s Got Grapes comes from a small portion of Rosewood Vineyard’s pick and only saw concrete. The fruit was left whole cluster in our small concrete cylinder to ferment for 10 days, then pressed back into concrete to age for 10 months. The plan for this wine was to go into our Love Red blend – but it was too good on its own. Chill it down, pop it open and drink up. #naturalwine #spontaneousfermentation #rosé #grenachegris #lagrein #valdiguié #nattywine #wine #winelover #winetime #winestagram #winelife #plazahills #plazashamrock #countryclubheights #villaheights #noda #plazamidwood #charlotte #clt #charlottesgotalot #tiptopyadontstop #finelivin #moreplease #allthebeveragessnacksandrecordsfitfordailyconsumption (at Tip Top Daily Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD6gdOKp8Uy/?igshid=77xqod904182
