Grenache / 2024
The 2024 Count’s Selection Grenache opens with enticing aromas of fresh raspberry, sun-ripened strawberry, and a hint of bright citrus that lift gracefully from the glass. The palate reveals a layered interplay of red cherry, warm baking spice, and a touch of anise, accented by subtle notes of cocoa and a delicate dash of white pepper. Smooth, well-woven tannins lend structure and polish, carrying the wine to a long, vibrant finish that lingers with elegance and energy.

The Buena Vista Vinicultural Society was formed in 1863 by the winery ’ s founder, Count Agoston Haraszthy, to further improve its winemaking prowess and expand its vineyards. The Vinicultural Society has been restored as a collection of unique small-production wines that honor the winery ’ s pioneering spirit and contribution to California winemaking. The Vinicultural Society explores noteworthy, obscure varietals, vineyards and the incredible terroir of Sonoma. Being true to our heritage, Buena Vista Winery presents to you our Count’ s Selection Grenache.
