Discover the grape variety: Teroldego
An autochthonous Italian grape variety that has been cultivated for a very long time and is fairly common in the northern part of Italy (Trentino, Alto Adige, etc.). It can also be found in Slovenia, Croatia (Istria, etc.) and the United States (California, etc.), but is virtually unknown in France. Genetic analyses have revealed that it is the niece or nephew of dureza and therefore the aunt or uncle of syrah. It is also said to be related to marzemino, lagrein and refosco dal peduncolo rosso.

The wine region of Rioja
Star of great Spanish reds: signature Tempranillo, elegant and complex, with notes of ripe cherry, plum, leather, vanilla and tobacco from American oak ageing. Classification by age: fruity Joven, balanced Crianza, ample Reserva, deep, silky Gran Reserva (5 years, 2 in barrel). Some fresh Viura whites and generous rosés. Spain's first DOCa (1991), 3 sub-zones (Alta, Alavesa, Oriental), 93.
The word of the wine: Rootstock
American vine on which a French vine is grafted. This is the consequence of the phylloxera that destroyed the vineyard at the end of the 19th century: after much trial and error, it was discovered that the "pest" spared the roots of the American vines, and the technique became widespread.
