The wine region of North Carolina
North Carolina is a state located on the east coast of the United States, between the Appalachian Mountains to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The state's transitional Climate is well suited to growing grapes for wine production, and the state has a Long and illustrious wine-making history. North Carolina's finest wines are made from Vitis vinifera grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot and Riesling. However, muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia) are native to the region.
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
