The wine region of Minas Gerais
Brazilian southeast state (south of Belo Horizonte), altitude vineyards between 800 and 1,000 m (Caldas, Andradas), pioneer of double-pruning allowing winter harvest — dry season with mild temperatures. Signature Syrah as red king: deep and spicy with blackberry, black cherry, violet, black pepper, smoked bacon and floral touch, firm tannins — comparable to modern Rhones. Vivid and aromatic Sauvignon Blanc (grapefruit, boxwood).
The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
