Discover the grape variety: Baco noir

Colourful, lively reds with a deep purple robe, supple tannins and high acidity. Intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry, plum, coffee and characteristic smoky notes. Dense palate, tense finish. Nearly banned in France, it is the signature of northern Canadian reds (Ontario, Nova Scotia) and the north-eastern US (New York). French hybrid created in 1902 by François Baco in the Landes (Folle Blanche × Vitis riparia Grand Glabre).

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: Cryptogamic

Refers to diseases transmitted to plants by a fungus.
