This wine is an ATP selection. Find out more about joining the ATP. 2004 Lytton Estate Grenachebottled August 200675% Grenache, 16% Petite Sirah, 9% ZinfandelA cold, wet winter followed by a warm spring launched the growing season early, and brought harvest two weeks ahead of schedule. The unique blend of varietals in this wine attributable to the make-up of our oldest grenache block (1902), and our second-oldest (1963). Both are dominated by grenache, yet include petite sirah and zinfandel. These, and two younger unmixed grenache blocks, were harvested and fermented separately. The juice was aerated and gently pumped over the cap of skins for six days. We pressed after two weeks, and, followng malolactic, racked to air-dried american oak barrels. In spring we blind-tasted, deciding on four exceptional lots to make this complex, structured grenache. Rich and full-bodied, it will soften further and develop beautifully during the next five years. EB/PD (4/06)
