Discover the grape variety: Berdomenel
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in some ampelographic collections as a heritage variety whose commercial diffusion has disappeared, studied for its genetic and historical interest. Rare, little-documented white grape grown in negligible quantities.

The wine region of Grand River Valley
Federal AVA in northeast Ohio (Lake and Ashtabula counties, ~1,300 acres, >50% of Ohio production): Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc cool-climate signatures on the International Pinot Belt — fresh, structured profile with vibrant fruit and acidity preserved by Lake Erie's moderating influence. Vitis vinifera and hybrids (Vidal Blanc, Traminette) complementary. Glacial sandy, gravel and clay soils, northeast slopes.
The wine region of Ohio
Midwestern wine state tempered by the Great Lakes, a cool climate. Signature Grand River Valley Riesling: chiselled, precise whites with signature notes of citrus, white peach, green apple, white flowers and a mineral touch, crisp acidity — compared to the neighbouring Finger Lakes. Buttery Chardonnay, fine silky Pinot Noir, peppery-raspberry Cabernet Franc. Also sweet Vidal Blanc hybrids, Catawba, Concord.
The word of the wine: Density per hectare
Number of vines per hectare. For the same yield, a vine planted with 3,000 vines per hectare bears many more bunches (per vine) than a vine planted with 10,000. The grapes will therefore be less rich in sugar and polyphenols (tannins, aromas...).
