The wine region of New Mexico
Wine state of the American Southwest, the oldest in the USA (vines from 1629). World specialty: signature traditional-method sparklings (pioneer house Gruet) with signature notes of green apple, brioche, citrus, white flowers and a hazelnut touch, fine taut bubbles. Also sun-drenched high-altitude reds: dense Cabernet Sauvignon (cassis, cedar), jammy Zinfandel, spicy peppery Syrah. High-altitude desert vineyards with strong diurnal swings.
The word of the wine: Pigeage
Operation consisting of a vertical treading to push the cap of marc into the wine, which promotes extraction. Pigeage can be carried out mechanically with jacks that plunge into the vat. Traditionally, it is the men who go down into the vats and push the cap by trampling it.
