Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and hybrids complement. AVA, moderating lake effect, extended season, schist soils.
The wine region of New York
America's 3rd wine state by volume, striking diversity. Finger Lakes the signature: cool-climate Riesling, dry to off-dry, mineral and lively with notes of lime, apple, evolving petrol and white flowers — a US benchmark. Warmer Long Island for peppery Cabernet Franc and supple Merlot. Hudson Valley (Seyval, Vidal).
The word of the wine: White Grenache
White grape variety cultivated mainly in Spain and a little in the south of France (southern Rhône valley, Languedoc-Roussillon). It is the white variety of Grenache noir. It is used in the blending of several white wines (dry wines or natural sweet wines) to which it gives richness, fatness and floral notes.
