Racines
Change it up a bit in terms of region and country to see what Pinot Noir brings to the USA!
California enjoys a very cool climate, which is highly conducive to producing subtle, elegant, vibrant wines full of energy.
Burgundy is exported!
Racines is an original project initiated by the De Montille family with the aim of exporting Burgundian know-how across the Atlantic.
It is in the geographical area of Santa Rita Hills that the talent operates in a natural way in collaboration with Justin Willet, a winegrower native of Santa Barbara.
There, the two protagonists combine their different skills in order to work with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes that are capable of producing wines that can rival the greatest Burgundies. Taking advantage of a cooler climate that is conducive to viticulture, the wines of Racines will quickly become models of a new kind.
This maxi best-of adventure brings together the best of Californian soil and Burgundian know-how.
Totally "in love" with Chardo and Pinot since the dawn of time, Winedigger had to make you experience the thrill of the great American spaces, notably thanks to these "made in USA" cuvées.
Not forgetting that one day a great president said: there's no excuse not to try it!
