A New World version of the French classic “Rhone Blend.” Grenache acts to soften the more tannic Syrah, while Mourvèdre adds backbone and a unique “gamey-ness.” This is a versatile wine capable of accompaniment to many different dishes. Spicy aromas with notes of clove, black pepper and currant.

This is our 9th vintage of “Pistoleta”; our signature Rhone White blend of Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne and Grenache Blanc.  As in other years, most of the wine is co-fermented to naturally optimize wine chemistry.  In the end, we adjust the blend by adding additional Viognier and Grenache Blanc, as needed.  Pistoleta is bright, fresh and fruit driven, with notes of citrus and stone fruit.  It's an excellent accompaniment to Thai or Mexican food, and a great choice to have before dinner.
