Wine Notes Print tech sheet
Tenacity is more than just a name – it's the embodiment of our relentless pursuit to craft extraordinary wines that challenge expectations. The blend from the 2021 vintage allowed for a perfect expression of each variety. Grenache forms the backbone, offering vibrant fruit and approachability.

This wine invites you on a journey through layers of flavor and texture and is a testament to Sonoma's diverse terroir and our commitment to pushing the boundaries of California winemaking. Tenacity rewards the adventurous wine drinker, offering a glimpse into the untapped potential of Rhône varieties in our corner of the world.
