Wine Wednesday: Corner 103, 2014 Grenache, Russian River

"Wine connects man and nature and time in a way that nothing else does."

-Hugh Johnson

This Week: Corner 103, 2014 Grenache, Russian River

About Corner 103:

Lloyd Davis, founder of Corner 103 Winery, created Corner 103 with the recognition that most people are intimidated by wine. With his passion for wine, Lloyd wanted to create an experience for these people, where they could explore and discuss wine in a relaxed environment. Today, Corner 103 winery resides in the Sonoma Plaza. At Corner 103, Lloyd showcases his limited production wines that highlight each varietal. Each of the wines at Corner 103 come from a different American Viticulture Area of Sonoma County.

Tasting Notes: 

This 2014 Grenache has aromas of strawberry, cherry, peony, and almond skin with a crisp and fruity body. This is a spicy Grenache on the sweeter side, that pairs very well with food.

Pairings:

At the girl & the fig we’d recommend pairing Corner 103, 2014 Grenache with our Croques Monsieur (applewood-smoked ham, St. George cheese, quinoa, and green salad).

At home try it with baked ham, meat loaf, or lasagna. 

Cheers!
