More informations about the variety Baco noir

It is the only vinifera-riparia that has been commercialized. It is the result of crossing the folle blanche with the riparia grand glabre created in 1902 by François Baco. Depending on the region, we can still find some small plots of black Baco vines often mixed with other varieties. You will also find trellises or arbors installed a long time ago in front of old houses and still maintained in a more than remarkable way thanks to the great vigour of this variety. It should be noted that there is also a white baco resulting from the crossing of the folle blanche by the noah and resembling much the latter.

More informations about the region of Vermont

Vermont is a small state of 25,000 square kilometers located in the far northeastern United States. Thanks to the development of cold-hardy Grape varieties at the University of Minnesota, Vermont's wine industry has flourished over the past 20 years, complementing the state's production of craft beer, cider and maple syrup. However, the state's best-known alcoholic products are generally spirits. Vermont Lies between latitudes 43°N and 45°N, about the same distance from the equator as the famous wine regions of Bordeaux and the Willamette Valley.
