Rhône Rodeo - GSM
Did you know that one of the largest rodeos in the world takes place each year in Saint-Agrève – about a half-day horse ride from the Rhône River in southern France? We didn't either and when we found out it inspired us to name our blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre Rhône Rodeo. We sourced this fruit from La Vista Vineyard and Hastings Ranch - both in the Adelaida District and about 11 miles west of Paso Robles. Due to the proximity of these vineyards to the coast and their relatively high elevation (about 1,300 feet) the grapes grown in this area are exposed to more ambient moisture and generally cooler temperatures than the grapes grown elsewhere within the Paso Robles AVA. For this reason, our Rhone Rodeo GSM is a bit lighter and more buoyant than your typical Paso GSM - but with nice spice and a level of complexity that GSM fans will appreciate. Profits generated through the sale of our Rhône Rodeo GSM are split 50/50 with CASA of San Luis Obispo, an organization that advocates for the best interests of abused and neglected children within the court system.
