Heitz Grignolino 2016

Grapes: Grignolino

Region: California 

Grignolino, a medium-bodied varietal from the Piedmont region in northern Italy and rarely found in California, has been a part of the Heitz Cellar portfolio since their  founding in 1961. In 1966, cuttings from those vines were planted on 5 acres at the wineries property in the hills of St. Helena, where they continue to grow today. They continue to be the only producer of a 100% Grignolino in America
