Sourced from our friends, Quail Run Vineyards, in the Rogue Valley AVA. This vineyard site is western facing with beautiful sun exposure - and the grapes are extra spoiled with mountain views. With gravely silt loam soils and elevations of 1,600 feet - these grapes live the true old-time Western lifestyle. This must be why you get a little taste of the Wild West. 

A Note from Winemaker, Leo Gabica

“The 2021 vintage has been a favorite for our red wines. With temperatures a little higher than average, we had rich depths of flavor. We cold-soaked the Grenache for three days prior to primary fermentation. Then, we barrel-aged the wine for 19 months in French oak : 16% new oak and 84% neutral oak. Like Pinot Noir, the Grenache is a beautiful grape that expresses the terroir within the flavor profile. If you are new to my winemaking style - or the wines of Sweet Cheeks Winery - we try to capture the true flavor profiles of the varietal, the vintage, and the vineyard site. I do like to age most of our red wines for a minimum of 18 months to provide a touch more body - so this Grenache will be more of a medium, to almost full, in body. If you are looking for a wine that is adjacent to the Pinot Noir, but has just a little something extra - this is the wine for you. Cheers.”

Originally home to Spain, but made famous within the Southern Rhône Valley, this varietal is beginning to gain traction and recognition. If you are an adventurer or world traveler, like the Grenache, you will enjoy this wine with a wide variety of foods. We love to enjoy the Grenache with grilled or smoked meats, stews, and charcuterie. You could also pair the Grenache with a mild curry or goulash.
