The wine region of West Friesland
Wine region in northern Netherlands (North Holland province), cool maritime climate, young vineyard relying on resistant hybrids. Solaris is the signature white: aromatic and early-ripening with intense citrus, stone fruit, green apple, pineapple and a floral hint, lively acidity. Johanniter, Souvignier Gris and Phoenix as vibrant whites. Regent and Rondo as light, fruity reds.
The word of the wine: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
