the wine from Clos Lapere is bone dry with crisp green apple and citrus on the palate
but it could be something perfectly unexpected with freshly shucked oysters
There’s also another joke in there
Muscat Ottonel and Pinot Gris - with a steely backbone of Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc
This in complimented by a nose reminiscent of armfuls of fresh blooms
Amevive, Alisos Canyon AVA Grenache, 2023 Christmas the wine from Clos LapereA juicy, moreish Grenache from the newest AVA in Santa Barbara County, Alisos Canyon. Juicy wild strawberry and fresh thyme, with a peppery core, fine tannin, and a long, juicy finish. This wine has great concentration which Alice, the wine maker, in part owes to her use of European varieties that thrive in Santa Barbara County.
