Discover the grape variety: Joubertin

Light and simply fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, silky tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, featuring undemonstrative red fruit aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is among the heritage grape varieties under study. Rare French black grape, once grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Lugana

DOC straddling Lombardy and Veneto south of Lake Garda, benchmark saline, structured whites. Native Turbiana (Trebbiano di Lugana) as the sole grape: lively whites with signature notes of fresh almond, citrus, white apple, white flowers and a saline iodine mineral touch, taut and long palate — with unsuspected ageing potential. Still, oak-aged Superiore, ample Riserva and Spumante versions. Rich clay-limestone soils, ~1,800 ha.


The wine region of Lombardia

Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.

The word of the wine: Thinning

Also known as green harvesting, the practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining bunches often gain weight.
