2022 Grenache Rossi Ranch

Wine Notes Print tech sheet

Our inaugural release of Rossi Ranch Grenache captures the wild spirit of this historic vineyard. In 1910, Italian immigrant Carlo Rossi carefully planted the first vines on this special piece of Sonoma land. After his passing and under the careful stewawrdship of his son Val, the resilient vines stood the test of time, producing coveted fruit that has found its way into the bottles of many of California's most respected wineries.


The 2022 vintage is highly expressive, showcasing briary fruit and hints of native chaparral herbs which evoke the rugged beauty of Rossi Ranch's terroir. The wine's vibrant acidity and silky tannins create a harmonious structure with a compelling, spice-tinged finish. A true expression of place, this Grenache embodies the untamed personality of Rossi Ranch. It is more than just a wine – it's a living testament to history, capturing the essence of a place that has been producing exceptional grapes for over a century.
