Discover the grape variety: Counoise
Supple and fresh reds with a clear ruby colour, melted tannins and preserved acidity despite the sun, on aromas of strawberry, raspberry, red cherry, white pepper, garrigue and spiced notes. Airy and thirst-quenching palate. A traditional component of Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC (one of the 13 authorised varieties), it brings freshness, finesse and aromatic complexity to southern blends of Côtes-du-Rhône and Languedoc. Native Rhône variety, very late-ripening.

The wine region of Mendocino County
Northern Californian county of contrasting climates: signature Pinot Noir reigns in reds in cool Anderson Valley — fine and fruity with cherry, raspberry, strawberry and a spicy touch over a mineral base, silky tannins. Peppery, spicy Zinfandel in the hot interior of Redwood Valley (blackberry, plum, black pepper, berries). Fresh Chardonnay in whites, Alsatian grapes at altitude. AVA since 1983, 10 nested AVAs, Pacific fogs to the west vs hot valleys, varied soils.
The wine region of California
Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
The word of the wine: VDQS
Delimited wine of superior quality. A level of appellation (today, barely 1% of French production) which constitutes the ultimate step before the accession to the AOC.
