Winemaking "In cool years the Grenache is enormously pretty and fragrant. This was the first year of production for the Cinsault and was thinned multiple times both for enhanced concentration and evenness of ripening. The cooler climate gives the Cinsault a wonderful articulation of flavor, but what is most noteworthy is the fact that we were able to co-ferment the Cinsault with the Syrah. This seems to give more structure to the Cinsault, something magical happens when Syrah and Cinsault marry; the healthy tannin titer from Syrah seems to give more structure to the Cinsault, helps to stabilize color. The spicy, licorice component from the Syrah is a perfect foil to the Griotte cherry derived from the Cinsault."

Label Art: Original Art from 1855 edition of "Bordeaux et Ses Chateaux" Spaceship courtesy of Jules Vern, circa 1870.

Story
In 1954 , the Village council of Chateauneuf-du-Pape was quite perturbed and apprehensive that flying saucers or "flying cigars' might do damage to their vineyards, where they land therein. So, right-thinking men all, they passed an ordinance prohibiting the landing of flying saucers in their vineyards. The ordinance further states that is flying saucers did land they would be impounded.
