Michigan AVA on a peninsula between Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay (45 deg N, latitude of Bordeaux).

Ample Chardonnay, aromatic Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose). Fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth) and Gamay emerging.
The wine region of Michigan
Midwestern wine state on the 45th parallel (Burgundy, Piedmont), tempered by the Great Lakes (lake effect). Signature Riesling: precise, taut whites with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white peach, white flowers and saline minerality, crisp acidity - from dry to off-dry. Also ample Chardonnay, perfumed Pinot Gris, opulent Gewürztraminer (lychee, rose). Fresh, silky Pinot Noir in red.
The word of the wine: Bâtonnage
A very old technique that has come back into fashion in modern oenology, which consists of shaking the white wine in the barrels at the end of fermentation, or after fermentation, with a stick or a flail, in order to suspend the fine lees composed of yeasts at the end of their activity. This process is sometimes used for red wines.
