The wine region of Rhode Island
Smallest US state (New England), included in the Southeastern New England AVA, temperate maritime climate moderated by the Atlantic, 180-day growing season. Chardonnay is the signature white king: fresh and straight with green apple, pear, citrus, white flowers and a briny mineral touch, vibrant Atlantic acidity. Taut Riesling and aromatic Vidal hybrid as whites. Spiced Cabernet Franc and airy Pinot Noir as cool-climate reds.
The word of the wine: Old vines
There are no specific regulations governing the term "vieilles vignes". After 20 to 25 years, the yields stabilize and tend to decrease, the vines are deeply rooted, and the grapes that come from them give richer, more concentrated, more sappy wines, expressing with more nuance the characteristics of their terroir. It is possible to find plots of vines that claim to be a century old.
