| TASTING NOTE: 'India makes wine?' you may be asking. Yes, indeed. India is quite a large country and around half its length is in the tropics. Although the Karnataka region is tropical, the Nandi Hills in which this wine was grown sit at an altitude of 1,500 m (equal to Mendoza's highest vineyards). Grover Zampa is India's second-largest producer and their wine journey began in the 1960s when founder Kanwal Grover, a businessman with dealings in the aerospace & defense industries, began a lifelong passion for fine wine after encountering the wines of France on his business trips there. The wine is juicy and fresh with ripe citrus, gooseberry and grassy notes. (Vintages panel, Sept. 2016) |
