In 2012, we planted a small block of Picpoul Blanc in our Block 2 vineyard in southeastern Arizona. A vine indigenous to the Languedoc region of southern France, Picpoul took wonderfully to our dry, arid climate and calcareous soils. Originally envisioned by our team as a minor blending component to add acidity to our whites, we found that as these vines aged, our Picpoul wines developed a tropical lushness and rich finish worthy of a more pronounced position in our white wine portfolio. In Fly Girl, we’ve combined Picpoul with our Grenache Blanc and Viognier wines in nearly equal proportion, creating a refreshingly crisp white blend with bright, well-balanced acidity, a distinctive lemony zest and bold, lingering flavor of juicy pineapple. The flavorful acidity of Fly Girl pairs well with stronger-flavored, rich seafood, such as grilled salmon, scallops, fresh oysters and clams, as well as any cream-based soup.
