Discover the grape variety: Graisse

Lively, neutral dry whites with a pale golden robe, a taut palate with marked acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. An acidic profile ideal for distillation. A traditional component of Armagnac AOC blends, it contributes to the aromatic identity and finesse of Gascon eau-de-vie alongside Ugni Blanc, Baco and Colombard. An indigenous French white from the South-West, grown mainly in Gascony for distillation.

The wine region of Amador County

Historic heart of Californian Zinfandel in the Sierra Foothills (Gold Country): signature Zinfandel as king red (old vines >100 years) — powerful and spicy with notes of candied blackberry, plum, raspberry, black cherry, pepper and a cocoa touch, round tannins and generous alcohols (14-16%). Rhône grapes (Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Viognier) as sunny backup, Italian (Sangiovese, Barbera). Hot high-altitude climate (300-600 m), decomposed granitic soils.


The wine region of California

Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
