IGP of Lot-et-Garonne (both banks of the Garonne, southern-facing hills on the right bank, northern slopes on the left, balanced oceanic-Toulouse climate). Merlot and Cabernets as Aquitaine signature reds blended with the almost-extinct native Abouriou (phylloxera survivor bringing fine tannins) — lightly fruity profile with well-structured and pleasant tannins. Bouchalès, Côt, Tannat, Syrah and Gamay as complements. Oak-aged versions richer, fleshier and more complex.
Aromatic, full-bodied dry whites with a pale golden, slightly rosy color, ample palate and preserved acidity, with signature aromas of candied citrus, exotic fruits (mango, passion fruit), white peach, white flowers and subtle herbaceous notes (boxwood), more discreet than sauvignon blanc. Minor component in Bordeaux Blanc, Pessac-Léognan and Graves AOC blends, dry and sweet. Grey-skinned mutation of sauvignon blanc, indigenous to Bordeaux.
