What is your favorite forgotten grape? Clairette

What was your first experience with a forgotten grape? A Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc, a Clairette-dominant blend, was a game- changer. We were so excited to locate some when we relocated our winery from Napa Valley.

What do you love most about the forgotten grapes? Nothing against the noble varietals, however, the wine world has so much more to offer.
