This blend of 69% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 14% Cinsaut and 2% Petite Sirah offers fresh red currant aromas that are layered in earth and herb elements. The palate pairs raspberry and strawberry flavors with fennel pollen and cracked pepper, making for a very drinkable glass. — \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wineenthusiast.com\/contributor\/matt-kettmann\/\"\u003eMatt Kettmann\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarietals:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e69% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 14% Cinsault, 2% Petite Sirah\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAVA: Central Coast, CA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eABV: 14.5%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTasting: The '23 Cigare is expressive.

As we all know, Grenache grown in relatively cool sites in coastal California has a growing season long enough for it to create the spicy, peppery quality that we love so much and expect to taste in Cigare. We included, as is our wont, some wonderful Cinsault, a rather plump and juicy grape, which was signee to a fare-thee0well, to increase the concentration of this lightly colored and structured grape. The wine was aged in stainless steel tank and bottled ten months after harvest to preserve freshness and vibrancy.\" -Randall Grahm (Director of Winemaking\/Founder) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStory: In 1954, the village council of Chateauneuf-du-Pape was quite perturbed and apprehensive that flying saucers or \"flying cigares\" might do damage to their vineyards, were they to land therin. So right-thinking men all, they passed an ordinance prohibiting the landing of flying saucers or flying cigares in their vineyards. The ordinance further states that flying saucers or flying cigares that did land were to be taken immediately to the pound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"67Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52139079041307,"sku":"210000060320","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/1789\/4171\/files\/w3g6rfrqlpqtkpokqcf7.jpg?v=1778007400","url":"https:\/\/67wine.com\/products\/bonny-doon-vineyard-take-me-to-your-liter-le-cigare-volant-rhone-blend-1-0-liter-2023-750ml","provider":"67","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
