Discover the grape variety: Pinot Meunier
Vinified almost exclusively as a base for Champagne AOC, where it brings freshness, fruitiness and immediate roundness to blends (apple, pear, red fruit, brioche notes); it is the most approachable young of the three Champagne varieties. Represents about one third of plantings, the absolute signature of the Vallée de la Marne. Also vinified as single varietal by some growers (blanc-de-noirs meunier champagnes). A cottony-leaved mutation of Pinot Noir, autochthonous to Champagne.

The wine region of Valpolicella Ripasso
Venetian wine at the crossroads of Valpolicella and Amarone: signature Corvina as the royal red with Rondinella and Molinara — dense garnet robe and fleshy profile with notes of black cherry, cooked plum, cocoa, sweet spices and a balsamic touch, round tannins and a long finish. Emblematic method: second fermentation of Valpolicella on Amarone pomace ("ripasso"), gaining body, alcohol (13-15°) and complexity. DOC (2010), Veronese hills, limestone and basalt.
The wine region of Veneto
World star of Prosecco: fresh, light Glera sparklers with notes of pear, green apple and white flowers, fruity, convivial bubbles. Veronese reds from Corvina and Rondinella: light, crisp Bardolino, fruity Valpolicella, opulent, concentrated Amarone DOCG (black cherry, chocolate, raisin) from dried grapes. Mineral, almondy Soave (Garganega) whites, fresh Pinot Grigio. 97,500 ha, Italy's largest production.
The word of the wine: Marcottage
A vine reproduction technique that consists of burying a vine shoot that takes root and reproduces a plant with the same characteristics as the vine to which it is attached (synonym: provignage).
