The wine region of Wognum
Dutch viticultural commune of Noord-Holland (between Hoorn and Alkmaar), temperate humid climate softened by polders and the North Sea. Modern Piwi signature varieties (Solaris, Johanniter, Souvignier Gris, Cabernet Cortis, Regent, Rondo) as lively aromatic whites with citrus, exotic fruits, white flowers and a fresh herbal touch, and as supple reds with red fruits and a spiced touch. Young, innovative and disease-resistant Dutch wines, polder identity.
The wine region of West Friesland
Wine region in northern Netherlands (North Holland province), cool maritime climate, young vineyard relying on resistant hybrids. Solaris is the signature white: aromatic and early-ripening with intense citrus, stone fruit, green apple, pineapple and a floral hint, lively acidity. Johanniter, Souvignier Gris and Phoenix as vibrant whites. Regent and Rondo as light, fruity reds.
The word of the wine: Acidity
When present without excess, acidity contributes to the balance of the wine, giving it freshness and nervousness. But when it is very high, it becomes a defect, giving it a biting and green character. On the other hand, if it is insufficient, the wine is soft.
