Napa Valley’s Lovall Valley Loop Road Home to Grieve Family Winery
Hear about the climate in this tiny bowl, Lovall Valley, where Winemaker Vance Rose grows Sauvignon Blanc for Grieve Winery. Perched on the border of Napa and Sonoma, cool air from Carneros is just a stones throw away yet this tiny micro-climate is even cooler. Rose grows a few clones of Sauvignon Blanc and they have a longer growing season, yielding amazingly complex flavor for this generally simpler grape. Watch a bit more on the area and the winery here.
