Winebow welcomed the newest offerings from acclaimed Central California Coast wine producer Scheid Family Wines to Connecticut: Grandeur 2021 Red Blend and Grandeur 2022 Rosé. Certified by the California Certified Organic Farmers organization, Scheid’s White Flower Vineyard is nestled against the southernmost foothills of the Santa Lucia Range in the Hames Valley AVA, a locale where the organically farmed Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah grapes thrive and reach optimum ripeness each vintage. The national launch of Grandeur continues Scheid Family Wines’ focus on long-term sustainability: With the harvest of 2023, the business is set to have more than 500 certified organic acres, with most of the plantings dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah. The new label was inspired by White Flower, the company’s first certified organic vineyard, and the symbiotic relationship of nature within its delicate ecosystem. The vineyard was planted thoughtfully around a majestic blue oak tree that houses a flourishing bee colony, reflected by the symbol of a bee that adorns the front label.
