Heavily inspired by the structural and transparent profiles of the Loire Valley, Beaujolais, and the Northern Rhône, the duo sources from uniquely expressive, cool-climate sites across the Pacific Northwest. Under the Division umbrella, the \"Gamine\" label belongs exclusively to Kate Norris—a dedicated project influenced by the terroir-driven styles her mother loves, focusing predominantly on the expressive capabilities of Rhône varieties. Embracing low-intervention practices, the domain relies completely on native yeast fermentations, neutral vessels, and minimal enological additions to deliver dynamic natural wines with high transparency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 \"Gamine\" Grenache is a beautifully sophisticated, highly scannable red wine engineered to highlight tension, volume, and grace over heavy extraction. The fruit is sourced from Mae's Vineyard, an organically farmed, high-elevation site in Southern Oregon's Applegate Valley AVA. Perched on southeast-facing slopes, the vines thrive in unique pink granite soils that instill a distinctive mineral-laden backbone into the grape's raw character. To maximize the vintage's aromatic purity and balance structural depth, Kate utilizes a split vinification strategy: 50% of the fruit undergoes whole-cluster carbonic maceration in concrete vats, while the remaining 50% is handled via traditional fermentation. Pressed off and aged inside a combination of concrete tanks and a neutral French oak barrel, this zero-compromise cuvée is bottled completely unfined and unfiltered with just a minimal touch of sulfur. The resulting vibrant palate elegantly juxtaposes dark cherry and plum volumes with wild herbal top notes and fine, slatey mineral length.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Division Winemaking Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47491876978837,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/1718\/0053\/files\/DivisionWinemakingCompanyGamineGrenache2023.jpg?v=1782411876","url":"https:\/\/gcfwines.com\/products\/division-winemaking-company-gamine-grenache-2023-750ml-chillable-red-wine-bottle-13-5-abv","provider":"Good Clean Fun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
