NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Tomasello Winery Chambourcin is an excellent example of a Chambourcin.On the nose, it is bursting with aromas of fresh cherry, raspberry, and subtle black pepper. On the palate, it has a juicy and lively texture, with blackberry and plum flavors, and hints of cedar and tobacco. The finish is smooth, lingering, and balanced. A perfect choice for any occasion, this Chambourcin is a delightful and versatile wine.

ORIGINS

Winery: Tomasello Winery

Region: New Jersey

New Jersey is a state located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. It is bordered by New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the Atlantic Ocean. With a long history of winemaking, New Jersey is now emerging as a major player in the US wine scene. New Jersey has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 1600s when Dutch settlers planted the first vines in the state. In the 1700s, the British took over and continued to cultivate the vineyards. By the 1800s, New Jersey had become one of the largest wine-producing states in the US. However, Prohibition in the 1920s put an end to the state's winemaking industry. It wasn't until the 1980s that winemaking began to make a comeback in New Jersey.
