16 Colibri Counoise

2016 Counoise

Colibri Vineyard

Cochise County, Arizona

100% Counoise

Counoise (pronounced coon-whaz or whah) is a relatively unknown grape used in Southern Rhone blends with such notable bedfellows as Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre.  (The only Rhone house that I have ever seen bottle a pure Counoise was Beaucastel.)  Rarely does it get bottled by itself, but we are compelled to peel some off every year we harvest at Colibri.  The unique and intensely vibrant fruit of this wine is more prominent than in previous years, which showcased a more spice driven wine. This will prove to be an excellent wine to cellar in the short term and drink in the near future!
