The wine region of Valle de Guadalupe
Mexico's wine capital (~90% of national production) in Baja California: an eclectic Mediterranean palette — structured Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar), supple Merlot, spicy Zinfandel in reds. Exceptional signature Nebbiolo (LA Cetto, one of the best outside Piedmont) with notes of cherry, rose, tar and firm tannins. Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Syrah complement. Chardonnay and Sauvignon in whites.
The wine region of North
North Israel encompasses Upper and Lower Galilee plus the Golan, vineyards at altitude on limestone soils, volcanic basalt and draining gravels, climate tempered by strong day-night swings. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah are the signature reds — full-bodied and precise with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, blackberry, garrigue and a mineral touch, ripe tannins and preserved freshness. Historic Carignan. Taut Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
