Wine from Umbria
Filter
The Green Heart City in Italy, also known as Umbria, is one of the smallest wine regions in the country. Quaint medieval villages and lush green hills surround the region. The fourth smallest wine region in Italy, the region produces almost a third of the wine that the Tuscany does and has been overshadowed by Marche, Latium, and Tuscany. With that being said, Ubrian wines are becoming much more respected and known around the world.
The history of Ubria’s wine making history started with the Benedictine monks they first started planting grape vines in the sandy and calcareous clay soil that the region is known for. The climate in the region is similar to Tuscany and enjoys dry and sunny summers, and cold and rainy winters with the exception being the area that surrounds Lake Trasimeno and Lake Bolsena, which is dominated by mild and Mediterranean microclimates.
A blend of four and sometimes five grapes, one of the best known Italian whites that is produced around Ubria is known as Trebbiano Toscana, Verdello, Grechetto, and Canaiolo Bianco, known also as Drupello, or Malvasia Toscana
Umbria is known around the globe as the land of the saints and includes San Benedetto, San Feliciano, San Fortunato, and San Francesco d’Assisi.

Ziata Pinot Noir Russian River Valley is made from 100% Pinot Noir.
Vineyard Notes
Green Valley is tightly delineated geographically and climatically, and is the most consistent Sonoma Coast appellation in terms of soil, climate and flavor profile. Two factors, in particular, make it ideal for Pinot Noir. First, the predominant soil type is Goldridge, which with its excellent drainage and low fertility, curtails the vine’s vigor. This results in fewer clusters but of better quality. Second, its elevation and cool coastal climate mean a smaller swing between and day and night temperatures, and its overall cooler daytime temperatures allow for a longer growing season to bring out the full potential of the fruit.
Tasting Notes
This silky Pinot Noir opens with aromas of fresh strawberry, cherry, raspberry and plum, warmed by notes of spice, forest floor and cedar. The wine is fresh and balanced on the palate, with fruit and beautifully integrated oak flowing into a long, juicy finish.
Production Notes
This was the third year of drought, but well-timed watering in the vineyard ensured ample growth and cluster development. Rolling heat spells prior to harvest were kept in check by cool nights, courtesy of the nearby Pacific Ocean. This diurnal range resulted in a medium-bodied, juicy gem of a Pinot Noir.
Shenandoah University’s 150th anniversary white showcases albariño, a Spanish grape which Chrysalis Vineyards, the producer of this wine, helped bring to Virginia. Albariño is proving popular in Virginia, with its botanical aroma, bright acidity, and notes of peach and green apple. Drink on its own or with light meals such as seafood. The wine’s name recognizes the rolling hills of the university’s Shenandoah Valley home.
