Kinero
Alice Grenache Blanc
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
This is a very enjoyable Grenache Blanc from Paso Robles. Showing citrus, green apples, grapefruits, bitter herbs, spices, light honey, peaches, melons and white pepper.
Very aromatic and pleasurable. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
Easy drinking and a good porch wine. Tasty and interesting.
Needs to be very chilled.
I paired it with cheeses, salmon dip and crackers.
13.8% alcohol by volume.
89 points.

Aug 4th, 2019Very pale lemon in color.
Fruity nose with green apples, lemons, grapefruits, citrus, minerals, limes, light spices and white pepper. Nose calls for a Sauvignon Blanc from California.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity crisp and refreshing and a bit buttery.
Dry on the palate with citrus, green apples, grapefruits, spices, bitter herbs and white pepper.
Long finish with herbs and almonds.
This Grenache Blanc from California is a good surprise. Well balanced, crisp and refreshing, with a light watery mouthfeel. Showing nice complexity.
Drinking very nicely now and better when fresh and properly chilled. Very easy to drink. A good summer wine and good for parties.
I paired it with soft and hard cheeses, but it really went well with the French Brie cheese.
13.8% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$25.

2013 Kinero Grenache Blanc - perhaps Anthony's best yet. Buy if any left.

Not as enjoyable as the bottle I had about a year ago. Losing freshness. Drink up if you've got 'em.

Textured yet bright. Really great with all the rich seafood mains. Will have to get more. A steal at $22.

Apr 30th, 2016Burnished gold with a definite phenolic character. Skin contact? Viscous texture and a lot of non-fruit flavors going on. Very interesting and enjoyable.
