Mission Briefing
Like the wind
An unusual blend of 35% Grenache Blanc, 29% Roussanne, 20% Marsanne, and 16% Picpoul Blanc, today’s Anaba Wines 2010 Coriol Sonoma Valley White Wine is… deeee-licious!
Picpoul Blanc is a rare and lesser known Rhône varietal that is one of the thirteen grape varietals that is permitted in Châteauneuf du Pape, where it gives acidity and lift to the wine. It is this esoteric grape that makes this wine such an exceptional food wine.
This delightfully bright and flavorful wine can be enjoyed with a wide variety of fare - especially something rich or fatty.
