Details and technical informations about Winery Lolonis's Cuvée Lorrane.
Discover the grape variety: Xinomavro
Structured, taut reds with a clear ruby robe that quickly evolves towards tawny, firm tannins and sharp high acidity (hence its name, xino-mavro = acid-black), with aromas of red cherry, sun-dried tomato, black olive, dried herbs, spice, leather and balsamic notes. Fine ageing potential, often compared to Nebbiolo. Absolute star of Naoussa PDO in Greek Macedonia, also Amyndeo PDO. Very late-ripening autochthonous Greek variety.

The wine region of Redwood Valley
High-altitude AVA (1997) in central Mendocino planted by Italians among the redwoods: Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Merlot and Pinot Noir are signature refined and complex reds — gradual ripening thanks to Pacific air through a coastal gap. Higher acidity and later maturity than Ukiah Valley. Signature red soils, many organic producers, fresh Italian heritage identity.
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).
The word of the wine: Carpentry
A powerful red wine with a dense, rich body and a tight tannic structure.
