The wine region of Virginia
Quality pole of the American east coast, unique signature in Viognier: ample, fragrant whites with notes of apricot, white peach, honey and flowers, silky on the palate. Cabernet Franc star in red, fine and fresh (raspberry, ripe pepper, spices). Also dense Petit Verdot, round Merlot, balanced Chardonnay, Vidal Blanc and native Norton. Humid continental climate tempered by the Appalachians, 8 AVAs (Monticello, Shenandoah).
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
