Tomorrow at National Wine Centre #adelaide, 29 producers will be showcasing their Emerging (alternative)white wines. It should be fantastic with all sorts of new whites on display- wines like #grunerveltliner #picpoul, #pecorinowine, #grenachegris etc.Can't wait,I'll be like a kid in a candy store!
Acquiesce Vineyard creates a sounding board for each variety of Grenache to express its voice, and a compelling case for appreciating wine strictly in the context of food. Re caparoso.substack.com/p/the-sensor...

Clos Lointain Meditations 2023, Côtes Catalanes, France Light golden in color. Nose of citrus, peaches, yellow apples, spices, light earth and herbs. Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with lemons, red and green apples, minerals, light grapefruits, herbs, spices, earth, light oak and light sea salt. Long finish with limes and light almonds. This is a delicious white blend from Southern France. Round and rich. Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting. As it warms up, it feels like a white Burgundy. So interesting. This Single Vineyard is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Good right out of the bottle, and better after 20 minutes of airtime. A great sipping wine that paired nicely with food too. A blend of 68% Grenache Gris and 32% Macabeo. Aged on its lees, in used large French oak barrels for 14 months. Unfiltered and unfined. A small production of less than 2,000 bottles. 14% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $50.
