Discover the grape variety: Manseng

Light and fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, fine tannins and fresh acidity, with aromas of red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), spices and herbaceous notes. An airy, easy-drinking style. Preserved in a few heritage plots in Béarn and the French Basque Country for its historical value. A very rare autochthonous south-west variety, with no direct genetic link to the white petit and gros manseng despite the shared name.

The wine region of El Dorado County

Sierra Foothills AVA in California (AVA 1983, 1,500-2,500 ft): signature Zinfandel as red king — bright bold claret-style profile, unique with intense blackberry, black cherry, spice and peppery notes, vivid acidity preserved by altitude and massive diurnal swing. Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah, Grenache and Rhône Viognier as complements. Decomposed granite soils, schists and volcanic remnants, infertile drainage.


The wine region of California

Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
