Curran Wines, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Barbara County, Grenache Blanc 2007 The nose combines flowers and herbaceous notes while the mouth is reminiscent of biting into a plum that isn’t fully ripe, bursting with fruit yet ripping with tart acidity and a bit of phenolic grip – a very intense wine that grabs your mouth’s attention – yes. Bottled in Santa Maria 14.1% $28 at the winery Curran Wines
