The wine region of Summit County

Wine region of Victoria (Cambrian red-clay Greenstone ~500 Ma, 50–250 m, temperate continental climate with cool nights). Shiraz is the absolute world signature — powerful, with blackberry, cherry, violet, pepper, wild herbs and a unique mineral-clay edge from the ancient Cambrian soils. Grenache, Tempranillo and Merlot in blends. Jasper Hill, Wild Duck Creek and Heathcote Winery as benchmarks.


The wine region of Colorado

American Far West vineyard at extreme altitude (1,200-2,000 m), among the highest in North America. A dry continental climate with strong thermal swings signing tension and freshness. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon reds with signature notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar and menthol, tight tannins. Round, fruity Merlot (plum, cocoa), peppery Cabernet Franc.

The word of the wine: Stirring (champagne)

Manual operation (on a "desk") or mechanical (with a "gyropalette") which allows the deposit created by the yeasts (see tirage) to go down to the neck of the bottle for disgorging.
