Wine + Cookie Pairing Notes
Curated by Amista Vineyards, the tasting brought a playful yet elegant twist to the traditional wine pairing—matching two estate-grown wines with classic Girl Scout cookies. Here’s what was in your glass (and on your plate):
Amista Crystala Chardonnay
Fermentation Method: 100% fermented in a concrete egg, allowing natural micro-oxygenation and gentle stirring for added texture.
Tasting Profile:
-
Crisp and clean with bright citrus notes
-
Subtle floral aromas and mineral-driven texture
-
Elegant creaminess without the influence of oak
Cookie Pairing: Trefoils (Shortbread)
The buttery richness of the cookie elevated the wine’s lemony brightness, enhancing its refined mouthfeel and minerality.
“The egg fermentation gives the Chardonnay a round, vibrant texture—and the shortbread cookie plays beautifully with that freshness.” — Ashley Herzberg, Winemaker
Amista Estate Grenache
Vineyard Notes: Estate-grown in Sonoma’s Dry Creek Valley; organically farmed, fermented with native yeasts, and aged in neutral barrels to preserve purity of fruit.
Tasting Profile:
-
Lush red berry aromas with hints of spice
-
Fresh and juicy with soft tannins and vibrant acidity
-
A youthful, expressive Rhône-style red
Cookie Pairing: Thin Mints
The mint-chocolate combo surprised and delighted, drawing out the Grenache’s red fruit while adding a cool contrast that refreshed the palate.
“Chocolate and red wine is always fun—but add a little mint and you’ve got a party.” — Brian Shapiro, Estate Director
