Solar Grenache and Mourvèdre, firm Cabernet, approachable Tempranillo.
The wine region of Idaho
Pacific Northwest American state, pioneer vineyard since 1860, modern renaissance at Snake River Valley AVA (since 2007). High-altitude desert climate, hot days and cool nights, Rhodanian latitude. Riesling the white signature: tense and precise with lime, green apple, white peach, white flowers and mineral touch, lively acidity. Peppery Syrah (blackberry, bacon, violet), supple Tempranillo (cherry, tobacco) — Basque heritage.
