2016 Dashe Cellars, “Les Enfants Terribles” Grenache, Dry Creek Valley, California, USA
A red brick color with aromas of red raspberry, strawberry, spice, and minerals. Beautiful floral elements of lavender and violets, slightly grainy tannins, long sweet finish of red fruit, minerals, and peppery spice.
In 1996, the husband and wife winemaking team of Michael and Anne Dashe founded Dashe Cellars. Focused on crafting exceptional single-vineyard wines, Dashe Cellars blends the two winemaker’s combined 40-plus years of experience at such noted wineries as Chateau Lafite-Rothschild, Chateau La Dominique, Ridge Vineyards, Cloudy Bay, Far Niente, Chappellet, and Schramsberg Wine Cellars. Drawing on this wealth of experience, the Dashes create vineyard-focused wines that capture the complexity and character of top vineyards throughout Sonoma County and beyond.
