The wine region of Arizona
Emerging US Southwest state, high-altitude vineyards (1,370-1,580 m) on volcanic soils. Rhone and Mediterranean grapes are the stars: signature Syrah (blackberry, pepper, olive, violet, round tannins), fruity Grenache, dense sun-drenched Mourvedre. Also spicy Tempranillo and fruity Sangiovese. Aromatic Viognier (apricot, flowers) and deeply coloured Petite Sirah in whites.
The word of the wine: Vinification of sweet wines
Moelleux and liquoreux wines are characterized by the presence of residual sugars (natural sugar of the grape), not transformed into alcohol under the effect of yeasts. The fermentation is stopped by cold and by the addition of sulphur dioxide (sulphur).
