Wine Profile
Production Notes
15% Whole Cluster Fermentation. Aged 16 months in 35% New French Oak.
Other Notes
"The 2019 Acceleration is a big, ripe, heady effort with ample black fruits as well as notes of spice and pepper. Fermented with 15% stems and aged 16 months in 35% new puncheons, it’s a terrific, full-bodied, hedonistic Grenache to drink over the coming 7-8 years.
These are some solid efforts from owner Jason DiFrancesco, whose Leverage releases focus on Rhône-styled wines from Paso Robles. The wines are made by Aaron Jackson, and both of the wines reviewed here are well worth seeking out." 93 Points - Jeb Dunnuck, September 2021
