Discover the grape variety: Pardotte
Simple, light and fruity reds with a lightly coloured ruby hue, smooth tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, featuring understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE variety collections for its heritage value, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of South-West France and is among the heritage varieties being studied. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.

Northern Californian county of contrasting climates: signature Pinot Noir reigns in reds in cool Anderson Valley — fine and fruity with cherry, raspberry, strawberry and a spicy touch over a mineral base, silky tannins.

AVA since 1983, 10 nested AVAs, Pacific fogs to the west vs hot valleys, varied soils.
