Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
Veneto DOC on the hills south of Vicenza, limestone and basaltic soils. Signature Tai Rosso as red king (local variant of Grenache): fresh and fruity with notes of raspberry, wild rose, blackberry, sweet spices and a touch of almond and prune on the finish, fine tannins and thirst-quenching palate. Historical Cabernet Franc (first Italian DOC of the variety), structured Carmenère (blackcurrant, bell pepper, graphite), soft Merlot. Lively Garganega as white.
