Discover the grape variety: Oberlin noir

Interspecific crossing between riparia Millardet and gamay obtained by Philip Christian Oberlin (1831-1915) who also created in 1897 the Oberlin Viticultural Institute in Colmar (Haut Rhin). This direct-producing hybrid was widely multiplied in the northeast region of France, from Alsace to Burgundy, also in the Loire Valley and in the Centre where our photographs were taken. Today, Oberlin noir is practically no longer cultivated, but a few vines exist here and there, producing very pleasant, albeit atypical, wines. It is nevertheless registered in the Official Catalogue of Vine Varieties, list A1. - Synonymy: 595 Oberlin (for all the synonyms of the grape varieties, click here!).

The wine region of Rioja

Rioja, in northern Spain, is best known for its berry-flavored, barrel-aged red wines made from Tempranillo and Garnacha. It is probably the leading wine region in Spain. It is certainly the most famous, rivaling only Jerez. The Vineyards follow the course of the Ebro for a hundred kilometres between the towns of Haro and Alfaro.

The word of the wine: R-C (champagne)

Harvesting-cooperator. It is the cooperative which elaborates the champagne of its members from their mixed contributions. It gives them bottles on which they stick their own label. It is legal without being intellectually honest. When you walk around the Champagne region, you may come across signs that say "Vigneron récoltant" to indicate a member of a cooperative. You can always ask him where his vats and press are.
