Seabold Cellars -- Grenache Blanc

Seabold Cellars, founded in 2014 by Master Sommelier Chris Miller, focuses on cool-climate organic and sustainable vineyards to produce balanced wines that showcase their origin more than their winemaking. During the year, more time is spent in vineyards than the winery. Their winemaking is as hands-off as possible, respecting traditional techniques and practices without being beholden to them. Only 25 cases produced! Super rare!
