Discover the grape variety: L'Acadie Blanc
Fresh, fruity dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and preserved acidity, with signature aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), green apple, white flowers and herbal notes. Also made as taut, refreshing traditional-method sparkling wines. Grown in Canada (Nova Scotia, Ontario) and the north-eastern United States, extremely cold-hardy. White hybrid grape obtained in 1953 by Ollie Bradt at the Ontario Horticultural Institute, a Cascade × Veeblanc cross.

The wine region of Chehalem Mountains
Most geologically diverse AVA of the Willamette Valley (Oregon), peaking at Bald Peak: signature Pinot Noir as red king (~70%) — elegant and complex with notes of cherry, red fruits, earth, game, spices and a mineral touch, fine tannins from red basaltic volcanic (Jory), marine sedimentary (Willakenzie) and aeolian loess soils. Fresh Pinot Gris and Chardonnay in support. AVA (2006), 60-500 m, cool climate, ~1,075 ha across 179 vineyards.
The wine region of Oregon
American benchmark for fresh, elegant Pinot Noir. Fine, silky reds with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and spice, delicate tannins and taut freshness — the closest style to Burgundy outside France. Iconic Willamette Valley on volcanic (Jory) and marine soils. Also precise, mineral Chardonnay, ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), taut Riesling.
The word of the wine: Vinification of sweet wines
Moelleux and liquoreux wines are characterized by the presence of residual sugars (natural sugar of the grape), not transformed into alcohol under the effect of yeasts. The fermentation is stopped by cold and by the addition of sulphur dioxide (sulphur).
