Description
This is a blend of 2, 3, and 4-year-old Bourbon, finished no less than 3 months in wine barrels which previously held several vintages of Ammunition Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon. This unique process imparts a sweetness and tannin unlike that of any other bourbon. You can smell it on the nose and see it with your eyes.
This whiskey is special. Dark amber in color, you can expect notes of caramel, butterscotch with a finish of vanilla and a hint of richness courtesy of the Cabernet Sauvignon French Oak casks. Special mash bill of 60% Corn, 25% Wheat, 10% Rye, 5% Malted Barley.
Ammunition is the shared vision of two guys who had a dream of making wine and after some not-so-careful consideration, they pooled some money together and made it happen. Andy was born and raised in Sonoma County where he started working harvests and interning to get a "cellar degree". Meanwhile, Bill was working on brand innovation for a few other wineries when a mutual friend introduced them. They hit it off right away and never looked back.
There are many decisions that go into making truly premium wines, from where the grapes are grown, when they are harvested, to how our juice is fermented, aged, and ultimately blended. As in many businesses there are many opportunities along the way to take the easy way out, or to cut corners in order to save a buck. For the Ammunition winemaking team, these simply aren’t options. In our mind, a penny saved may be a penny earned, but a pile of pennies isn’t going to produce a wine we are proud to share.
