Rondinella
Filter
Rondinella is a red grape varietal hailing from Italy’s region of Veneto. Rondinella is most often present in the blending of Valpolicella and Barolino. Rondinella will produce extremely large yields. Unfortunately, having high yields can often mean a lesser quality. For this reason, Rondinella is rarely thought of as its own variety. In the blending process, it will ad flavors of herb and substantial texture to Corvina wines. In recent studies and DNA profiling, it has been revealed that Corvina is an ancestor of the Rondinella grape. The typical thick skin of the Rondinella (which it shares with Corvina) makes for a sturdy grape type that is much less susceptible to disease and rot. It makes for an ideal grape type for drying out methods, such as appassimento, for making recioto and straw wines. Rondinella produces an extremely neutral flavor that also allows for easy blending.

Review:
Fresh violets, lilac, wild plums, allspice and wild herbal aromas pour from the glass. The focused palate shows tart cherry preserves, warmed cloves, roasted coffee and dark chocolate that finishes with a crushed chalk minerality. Fine tannins are present but in balance, working with fresh acidity to keep this wine in harmony. Drink now–2045.

Tasting Notes: Our Chardonnay is both fresh and creamy and has notes of citrus, green apple, white peach, and vanilla. Enjoy with roasted chicken, salads, fresh seafood, and cream sauces.
Le Jade Viognier is made from 100 percent Viognier
The wine comes from sun-drenched vineyards planted on the best terroir - specially selected for its physical and geographical characteristics - on clay and limestone hillsides called "costières" (coastal region). The vineyards are only a few miles away from the Etang de Thau, a coastal lagoon that is situated between the port of Sète and Marseillan.
The color is a wonderful brilliant yellow with pearl tints. Intense and seductive aromas of ripe fruits, especially apricot, and floral notes with a hint of rose petals. The texture is very harmonious, generous, round and long. The finish is long and balanced with a good freshness.
Perfect as an aperitif, or great with richer dishes like langoustines, smoked or marinated salmon. Great too with guinea fowl in creamy or curry sauce. Serve it also with a broccoli and Roquefort soup or for dessert with a mango and pineapple tarte Tatin. An extremely versatile wine!
