Le Cigare Volant - California, USA

In 1954 the village council of Châteauneuf-du-Pape was quite perturbed and apprehensive that flying saucers or "flying cigars" might do damage to their vineyards were they to land therein.  So right thinking men all, they passed an ordinance prohibiting the landing of flying saucers or flying cigars in their vineyards.  (This ordinance has worked well in discouraging such landings.)  Further, any flying saucers or flying cigars that did land were to be taken immediately to the pound.
No woofer this wine, we feel rather that it is quite a stellar accomplishment.  The composition of our Flying Cigar is based on the traditional encépagement of  Châteauneuf-du-Pape.  It contains 39% grenache, 32% mourvèdre, 28% syrah, and 1% viognier. Bonny Doon Vineyard
